Cross Off Hell and Enter Yourself
"CROSS OFF HELL AND ENTER YOURSELF"
tackled before the end
and your mud has dried up.
there are ways around it,
find them.
failure is every love that
made you sleep with the dogs.
backing down isn't in your deck.
all those nights you turned
the lamp on,
all those nights you watched
the shadows dance outside
your window,
all those nights you ran your
thumb over your blade,
gave you the wind of the city.
now move, dirt, trees, signs,
people, building's, cars, oceans,
mountains, skies and worlds.
shake the galaxy and let other
galaxies know you're there.
they tied the rope around your
neck and you pulled yourself down.
throw your chest to the sun
and pull up every submission
you've been under.
one to one from the chest up,
seize your fight.
