the goad

I'm just going
to coax, cajole
and goad you-all: DO IT
When it comes time.
When the thing to
do recurs to mind
and you know: DO IT
When you're sick
with the joy of
hope's anticipation
at an accomplishment
you won't be missin': DO IT
When the world says
you can't, or more likely
doesn't notice, or hasn't
noticed, okay DO IT

When people be like
DUH, WHY YOU
DOIN IT - DO IT!!!!!
When sometimes, all
you want in the whole
wide life is a hole to
poke your head into
and close your eyes DO IT
That's why I'm here. To sing
this

song

do 
it.
