nothing seems tangible
anymore
a realm that I am either intruding or simply
incapable of reaching
and they say shoot for the moon but
what if I have used up all of my arrows
on shooting stars, or
never had any to begin with
and what if my aim is a little off
all the time
and in a world where "landing among the stars"
isn't enough, I seem to have
no choice but
to put down my bow and
gaze at the existing
constellations
Response to the famous quotation, "shoot for the moon... Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars"
