OBSTACLE ILLUSIONS

About things that keep us from succeeding

Have you ever seen them

   they’re BIG, they’re THICK

Obstacle Illusions----one crippling

   trick! 

When one’s in your path it can

   stop you dead

Obstacle Illusions get out of

   my head!

They seem they can hurt you

   sometimes they do

Obstacle Illusions created by

   you.

How to defeat them, how to

   break through

Obstacle Illusions there’s no good

   they can do.

Like a mirage the thing is                             

   not there

Obstacle Illusions are in fact

   like thin air.

Reeve up your engine

   try to break through

When you hit nothing happens

   you simply pass through.

The illusion is strong

   the fear’s really there

So keep your foot to the floor

   break out of there!

ya know, I woulda seen that blade of grass there if'n it hadn't been for the sun in my eyes.

Smoothly constructed, a moral message to remember and simile you can take to the bank. Nice work Z.
