The last drop of hope
is the strongest.
That's why it's last
why it hangs on
why it holds out
why it pushes back
why it refuses to fall
and instead in defiance it stays,
waiting for your last word
in hope.
Inspired by a song:  'The worlds greatest' sung by Bonnie Prince Billy at the close of a movie, Lean on Pete.
