Aj Boxing

Challenged
        And under-defeated
He braced,
        Turnbuckle against his spine

Nervous
       And over-perturbed
He bounced,
       Mat against his heel

Champion
        And agin-heavyweight
He sparred,
        Air against his fist

The thoughts of so many I'm sure as the battle of 'life itself' gets harder to fight every day.
