Fearless stepping into the cage,
Yearning for the world to tune-in,
Bathed in blood with a loss or win;
No place for jokes, it’s time to rage.
The moment passes, turn the page.
Moon never full—always crescent,
A feeling to stave off despair,
So much goes in for constant care.
Bad things become a depressant,
Forge ahead being incessant.
