Knocking on Opportunity

I’m gonna write books again
Gonna face that uncertainty
and existential pain

Facing the fact
some of my pride

will seem like crap
compared to my
future potential

but that future
won’t come
unless I take

bold crappy steps
to get there
my kitchen feet
all dirty and bare

I don’t know much
but I do know this

Steps to success
come from humility’s kiss
