Last Chance Saloon
Time is ticking away
Sixty minutes until my doom
An expanse of blank whiteness
Stretches before me
Failure is not an option
Usually I’m such a quitter
But not here, not now
This is too important
The last chance
The final achievement
It’s difficult to believe
It’s been a whole year
Week in, week out
Relentless and unending
But now I’m here
How many others
Can say they’ve seen this through
Taken every opportunity
Accepted every challenge
Like I have
The pressure is building
I can’t let myself down
But here it is
My fifty-second entry
Complete and ready to go
Time is ticking away
Sixty minutes until my doom
An expanse of blank whiteness
Stretches before me
Failure is not an option
Usually I’m such a quitter
But not here, not now
This is too important
The last chance
The final achievement
It’s difficult to believe
It’s been a whole year
Week in, week out
Relentless and unending
But now I’m here
How many others
Can say they’ve seen this through
Taken every opportunity
Accepted every challenge
Like I have
The pressure is building
I can’t let myself down
But here it is
My fifty-second entry
Complete and ready to go
