go ahead
put your feet up
make sure that everything is clean
because youre going to be sitting for a while
maybe rocking
but that just depends on your style
some people get out the stress like weirdos
personally, i just like to stare in the void vacantly
this isnt going to be some run of the ******* mill tussle
what this is
THIS?
this is a marathon pit fight
this is
blood and
teeth
and
flesh ripped
and left hanging
but you still stare into the void
because youve trained your whole life for this
and ill be ****** if anyone can take it from me
so on
and even the reprieves offer no consolation
when you get to sit in your corner
focused on the set across from you
plotting the next flurry
this transcends battle to the death
this is battle-to-the-death-and-then-the-guy-keeps-punching-the-other-till-he-dies
yes the visceral image of an incredibly old boxer
beating a corpse
and finally passing away from exhaustion
settle in
