A constant struggle against the powers that be.

Fight on.

By Jordan ZunigaPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

I went about, and was sure to find,

A certain desire upon my mind,

Something not found in the east or west,

Neither up in the north, or down in the south,

Guarded by shield, and sword, and metal vest.

To search about, throughout the plain,

Climbing a mountain though not in vain,

The pants, the sighs that released from my mouth,

To reap the toil of my labors from where the spirit lead,

The storms disdain so constant, to fill the disheartened with dread,

Through hills, and valleys, through wilderness territories to cross,

To carry, to stumble, to fight despite what may pass,

Against a looming darkness, death and its spectral wraith,

Overcome by belief, overcome by upheld faith!
