This was it!

This Was It
By Happy Hiram

This is it
Fire your guns.
If you miss
that will be your story...

If you miss your chance
There will be no
story to tell.

There is no locker room afterward,
no bullpen or back porch.
Nobody in the nursing home
will get your name right
even if you make it there.

That was it,
moment gone,
never to come again.

Was it worth your time
was it just an amble
or did the guns
strike this time?
