Challenge
Survival or Death
Allow yourself to die at the hands of someone/something unspeakable, or allow the darkness to take over and become something worse to survive? What are you willing to do?
Take Me
Take me...
I can take it.
My vigor is strong to the point I can shake it.
My broad, broad shoulders can carry the load,
like a lode of boulders on my back that can't break it.
There's always something to glean in continuing to exist;
always a miraculous appearance to experience.
There are shades of darkness, and I'm not one to succumb;
I'll take my chances against the One.
"A heretic a heathen, I'll be knocking on the gates of hell,"
Boxing and weaving the venerable Peek-a-Boo; shields impenetrable as the Philly Shell.
I'm your Huckleberry, and I'll shuck and I'll jive;
and battle till it all turns to rubble.
Cuz what the Devil doesn't know about me...
is I'd bury myself alive, just to prove I can handle a shovel.
