Who is working harder him or me?

if only i hadn't been cursed with this worthless body.

Thirteen long brutal years has it been,

Why can't they be proud of me again?

Shoot in NOW, take the chance!

Ankle pick firm and grasp, push up to enhance

The savageness of your attack. Now bleed!

Too slow your opponent took heed.

Down one need an escape,

fake the leg, fake the leg use it as bait.

He bites, now cross-face tell your arm aches!

You win but bloods all he tastes.

Now it's time to put on the medal and fake a smile

Because the warrior inside won't die for awhile.


The author's comments:

I was trying to look for a wrestling poem that captured how i felt in the ring. However apon lack of finding one i decided to make this one my self. Wrestling is a very physical sport and not for the weak minded. "It's 95% mental 5% physical." Wrestling has been a major part of my life. It always helped deal with anger built up in a healthy way.
