    To Catch A Passing UFO - PHOENIX JAMES

    DEDICATION

    To those who strive

    To be better

    To be greater

    To those who know

    There’s more

    Somewhere

    Out there

    Within

    Without

    From letting go

    From holding on

    They know

    They will

    Eventually

    Find it

    Be free from it

    Or so they believe

    In relinquishing

    Thoughts

    Fears

    Doubts

    Held onto

    They let go

    And arrive

    And to a young boy

    Now less afraid

    To step away

    And return

    To home

    I’m here

    Over the moon

    You didn’t leave.

    YOUR AUTHOR

    ANDREI THE GREAT

    Andrei the Great

    How he got his name

    Crowned by me

    Coined by me

    And given to him

    Is how I met him

    And what meeting him

    And learning about his story

    Signified for me

    Where I had placed him

    Based on the greatness

    He had achieved

    In a short space of time

    Not only for himself

    And his own life

    But as a symbol

    A great symbol for others

    And in this story

    Importantly, me

    He had made this impression on me

    That was great

    So he was a symbol of greatness

    That I aspired to

    And he is the inspiration

    I'd say

    That sparked my decision

    To finally get up and move

    And do

    And be disciplined

    And change

    And adopt

    And adapt

    And change old habits

    And form new ones

    And stick with them

    And be better

    He was the one where I'd say

    Wow, that's inspirational

    If he can do it, I can do it

    This is a person

    Not in a newspaper

    Not in a magazine

    Not on a television show

    Not in a commercial

    Not in a video

    This is a real life person

    You’ve seen do something

    That you want to do

    And it was just inspirational

    And great

    And his name was Andrei

    And in my mind

    He was Andrei the Great

    Someone

    Who had made those changes

    For himself

    And in doing so

    Meeting him inspired me

    And showed me

    That if I made

    The necessary changes

    I too could achieve

    What he had achieved

    And that is the journey

    I am on now

    And inspired by

    And continue to be inspired by

    And I like to think

    That my journey

    Will inspire many others

    Not only the story

    Of Andrei the Great

    But also the example he set

    And the inspiration

    He has given to me

    By just being himself

    And that rubbing off

    And now me, living in that

    Will rub off on others

    Who encounter me and my journey

    And how I'm living

    And what I'm doing

    It's important to say

    That this was something

    On my mind for a long time

    You hear this, you see that

    You know to yourself

    I need to make these changes

    I need to do this

    I need to stop doing that

    I need to stop eating this

    I need to start eating that

    I need to stop being lazy

    I need to go to the gym

    I need to exercise

    I need to cut out this

    Cut out that

    And you go on like that

    For a very long time

    You can go on like that

    For a very very long time

    And that's what I was doing

    And why I like to talk about

    Who I call Andrei the Great

    Is because meeting him in person

    And hearing his story

    And watching him

    And seeing how he was living

    And what he'd been through

    In a very short space of time

    That was the little thing

    Just a little push over the edge

    That was needed

    For me to finally

    Make my move

    To do the same

    And achieve the same for myself

    It was already there

    I had all the signs

    I had all the inspiration

    I had all the reasons

    To go forth and be great too

    But I hadn't met, in person

    Another great

    That was the little thing

    The little change

    The little tweak

    The little push over the edge

    The little last thing

    That was going to make me get up

    And do

    And go for

    And not look back

    Meeting him that day

    Was that moment

    And thus

    He shall be forever named

    Andrei the Great.

    ANYWHERE BUT HERE

    A woman standing

    By the side of a winding road

    Flagging down a passing UFO

    Stilettos

    Tight jeans

    And a bikini top

    Tied at the neck

    Hair pinned up

    Bangles

    Nails done

    Suitcase

    She's packed to go

    Looking like she left home

    In a hurry

    To catch a passing UFO

    I don't know

    But I’d say

    She figured it was time to go

    Wherever a passing UFO

    Might be heading

    Some other galaxy out there

    Somewhere far away from here

    Some other place

    In outer space

    She looks nice

    Dolled up and ready to go

    Standing on the side

    Of a winding road

    Flagging down

    A passing overhead UFO

    Where she goes

    Or hopes to go

    No one knows

    Somewhere

    Better than here

    I suppose.

    ARE YOU OKAY

    What happened

    Where were you

    When we were talking regularly

    Where you are now

    Is your life different

    Are you a lot more settled now

    Than you were then

    Was a lot going on at that time

    Were you just busy

    With all the stuff

    That you were talking about

    Was it just work

    Did you know

    What was coming next

    Is life always going

    Where are you

    In relation to that

    Are you consumed

    By what's pulling you

    Or are you pulling it

    Are you in control

    Are you reading

    Are you writing 

    Do you need a doctor

    Do you have control

    Are
