"I say bring it on"


Poem Artwork

Look Fate in the Face

Here we wait at the midnight hour and well
You might ask me as you do what the hell
Are we or anyone supposed to do?

Seeing that those who run the world are nuts
Getting this feeling deep down in our guts
That it is all pretty much up to you
And me such as we are and fate makes three

The hour is late but we can fight with fate
Nobody ever wins but why not try?

We have nothing to lose since we all die
In any case so look fate in the face
I would die trying instead of lying

I say bring it on: let us die flying
I came in with a bang so out I go
And friend if you are not afraid of heights
I will take you with me to trip the lights

But those who fear to try and fly just lie
And dying know that they will never know

whamo slamo you whacked this one right out into left field Steve old Bud, we will never succeed if we do not try and you like I continually step back up to the plate. We ;may be jeered for all our strike outs but some day when we soar that ball right over left field for a grand slam what will be the crowds reaction then. Great write Steve.
