F.O.C.U.S.
By Matt Decker
Under this stress
Test and mess
I'll buckle unless
I answer this:
What is focus?
When I'm at my lowest
And progress is slowest
Through ferocious explosives
Caught within the locus
Of bogus hypnosis
Facing the atrocious diagnosis
And the hopeless prognosis
I place myself on notice --
The notice to focus.
Have I been promised
Constant doses of roses?
When has ever been an opus
Apart from the art of focus?
Will I let the stressing
Take away my blessing?
Hocus Pocus?
Hocus Focus --
The magic of focus
So what is focus? Just this --
