The Brass Ring

I know, in general terms, what I want to do.

I know I can make it work.

I have several related ideas any one of which can turn my life around.

I’ve written several very specific business plans to get me there.

I am certain it will work!

This latest is simplicity itself!

But it seems that the Universe is just toying with me.

I can see the brass ring.  It’s right there!

Yet every time I reach for it, my fingers just brush the edge.

Then it scoots away.  Out of reach again.

All I need is one thing to break my way for a change.

With just a little traction I can make truly great things happen.

Brush.  Scoot…

There it goes again.
