A Question then my beloved friend to when does one first pretend that defeat is the only answer , and to what cost to learned brow defend ?
Now and how it comes at such a cost , how daunting to the soul of man to be Victorius in all we say , think and do .
What is Victory then I ask ? A final push over English lines to the sound of Bread of Heavens heavenly rhymes ? To look on high to an Eagles cry and wonder why your eating bird seed and you can't fly and cluck cluck s the coolest song in town ?
Or some Medievil battle cry ' all must die ' waving sword on high blood and honor to the King ?
". Oh God is it possible " swooned into Herashios loving arm In Mertons meadows after two years all at sea , Oh God is it possible " Lady Hamiltons cry in Victory of the Nile did fling herself in Napels harbour . Then Rule Britania the band played on , to Trafalgars cruel fate .
Or is it one more pull , One last rep , One more curl until fibres spent ?
One piece of cake without the guilt to share on Bulimic bums and minds .
One step from hospital bed , to lift a finger , to give flight from your last dying breath .
To smile take heart at scolding tongue ?
Never to reach for that bottle when all you need is a drink , to pour it down the sink . To never reach for a needle , a vain , ? For in a soldiers might his bedside call , With book of love and head bowed low awaits his masters call .
