This, a time in life dare i admit, I feel out of focus
A mariner on the sea of life, without a compass
It happens, but is it I'm just out of sorts
Or more serious, searching for a port
To rest up and take a much needed rest
Without feeling, I'm preparing to take a test
A place I can slip, take a holiday gain strength
Not knowing how long I'll flounder, time and length
Probably just a hic-cup, as I navigate my life
Accept what is on offer, smile without any strife
I do believe we have to experience down times
To appreciate special moments, to set in rhymes
Just around the corner, waiting to be found
Hope is a word, that my future must be bound
So I accept, the journey with hidden ends
Straight roads are boring, but take care on all bends

There is a bar in San Francisco
where there is beer, pizza and wine
the girls are pretty and the
people have a good time
the folks are single
happy and free
hope it stays
that way
please

Let's put whose GOAT to rest
doing it all better defines best
Smartest and clutchest the just buzz
if anyone depicts 'greatest' he does
Founder of Fifty Forty Ninety club
'basketball genius' not just random hubbub
Others played checkers he played chess
other former 'greats' did personally confess
"Basketball Jesus" not show-boater in 'Air'
career Twenty-four Ten Six NON share
Laughable is "he wasn't that athletic"
total domination of league wasn't synthetic
"Couldn't jump and way too slow"
further proving he's NBA's #1 show
Jumped just enough to outrebound you
speed obviously more than adequate too
Haters choose rebuke over 'just' due
not being 'best' arduous to chew
Blatant racist only disgrace civil society
loss of 'Republic' inevitable from variety
"To the Greatest basketball player ever
but more important a friend forever"
Opinions on GOAT are simply that
with 'Magic' is where I'm at
GOAT FINAL WORD
Larry Joe Bird
