Nor Do I Yield

I want.
I do.
I get.
That's it!
I am not seeking substitutes for my dreams.
Only one train huffs and steams...
On these tracks I've laid to aim my beam!
I hope you're not trying to cross,
As I'm passing through.
One of us will not make our destination,
On time!
And I am long overdue.
Like a fine wine in my prime served cool,
With soothing smoothness of an improved attitude.
I want.
I do.
I get.
That's it!
I don't plan for anymore delays.
My patience has been upgraded to a higher speed.
You better move out of my way...
If there is something you like to save.
Something you believe that's on my path you need.
Folks indecisive?
Better turn around and leave.
I want.
I do.
I get.
That's it!
I want.
I do.
I get.
That's it!
Don't trip or stumble on my path!
I am not attracted to warnings.
Nor do I yield when I am focused.
I am not a jokester playing hocus pocus.
Not for you drugged up slow poke folks.
I want.
I do.
I get.
That's it!
Excuses or regrets?
I have not heard one I liked yet!
