relentless

Something

We aspire to

 

Someone doesn’t like

 To lose to you...

 

Or anyone

Else

 

Somewhat like

That which

 

You’ve

Grown accustomed

 

To attend to

 

So you double+down

And double+dutch…

 

Throttle+down

And double+up

 

Do you best to

Cover as much span as you can

 

For just as long

As you can stand…

 

 

 

You will go down fighting

To the last man

 

Until you fall exhausted

To the ground

 

Then you see the adversary

Moving so quickly covering ground

 

Then all goes black

 

…in the silence

nothing

 

Then…

Just when you think you’re in the clear

 

You hear footsteps

Coming round…

 

Relentless
