H.Williams 2012/2013

To beat the best one of them is to find the best one of me,
but I play against me in a game of hide-and-seek.
"Ask and it will be given. Seek, and you will find."
I've got the knocking part down pat, a well-played tune, perpetual rewind.
Knuckles to door, fist to wall, say hi to trouble, hello to the floor.
Progress K-O'd by a 1-inch punch, pull self together, push up from all-fours.
Am I running from, or chasing for? And what for?
Destination pending discovery, currently unknown, I
dodge disasters, spread out across the meantime,
lie in wait and wait for that moment...one more time.
