I did not wake up today
To be mediocre
Like the persistent flow
Of a mountain stream
Cuts through the rocks
And routes it’s course
I will consistently
Dwell on the things
That I plan to attain in this life
I will feel them and see them
As if they are already here
Written intentions combined with
Diligent meditation and
Active steps of pursuit
Will route the course
From my imagination
Into my reality
