Are you OK?

 Things aren’t going to be right

So what?!

Life ain’t planning to be bright 

Oh, hell!

Time’s going to run out

Farewell!

The edge that bacons

My path, I reckon 


And while I draw at least one breath

Inhale!

While the light is wreathing like a wraith 

Prevail!

The heart still hammers, counters death

Don’t fail!

Until the feet still hold the ground

Until the last drop of my soul runs out


Things never have been right

Who cares?

Life never held me tight

Unfair!

Truth always walked in shadow of mine

Despair!

Words, verbal spittle, brine

I am resolved to blind and shine

I stand and dare!
