The Beast

He struggles he fights, wrestles the beast
Trying to keep it from its feast
His weapons many, his courage strong
Some battles short, some battles long

He comes screaming on his steed so bright
He enters where others flee in fright
An immortal battle from time untold
He’ll fight and strive, so brave and so bold

At the end of the day his bones so weary
Still he will fight when called, no worry
No recompense does he desire, no reward required
Just a feeling of joy when the beast finally is retired

You are an artist. I feel the rhythm of the fight. Love it.

To have great poets there must be great audiences too.
