May 2015
Failure To Lift
Fists of iron
Steely embrace
A tumultuous tyrant
Ultimate disgrace
A burden beyond carry
A pain beyond name
Corded muscles harry
Face contorted with strain
Tired metal gives way
To the sound of ragged death
Dreaded tyrant of dismay
The sound of haggard breath
Yet the iron giant begins to fall
His weighty gait is sinking down
Tired legs slowly start to sprawl
As the hefty giant claims the crown
The struggle is an exercise
A ritual of deepest divinity
Yet failure tends to emphasize
That it is one done in futility
