Fight Club

De'ron " The Cron" Issacs,
In the best shape of his career,
ripped, the world champion,
through adversity he'd persevere.
Never tasting defeat, 
king of the streets,
beating the opposition,
by the swiftness in his feet.
Contorted facial meat, bruising
body blow after body blow.
Weak knees ensue,
Darkness looms,
"Cron" chants boom
as he stands reputed.
A reign of terror, 
De'Ron the undisputed
   
Some notable victories:

** Christain "The Holocaust" Frost:
    K.O., 1:54 into the second round:
    Out matched, a bloody mess.   
    Confused by DeRon's finesse.

** Kriss "The Kiss of Death" Seth:
    K.O., .58 seconds into the first round.
   Caught with a flying knee, surprised
   by the move of his former ally.

** Reese "Satans Seed" Reed:
    Submission, 3.24 into the fouth round.
    Brutal ground and pound, a monster!!
    Gave his back to be choked out.

** Byron "Iron Fisticuffs" Gruff
    K.O., 2:10 into the second round.
    Two broken ribs, he was revered.
    Disappeared, now lives recluse.

great poem about someone I 'd not heard of before! You write good, Jason. Hey, some guys are not getting it. My Little Room is a symbol of "writing in restricted form", such as sonnets. I write anywhere, on a bus, on a plane, in front of the tv! So my little room is not an actual place! LUv, Andrea

I really enjoyed reading your emotions. I can hardly wait to read more! in answer to your question: I share my poetry with the world so I suppose so although I haven't introduced them to it in class, I suppose that they could find it.

I like this poem Jared. This is a good "MAN" poem! (If there is such a thing--) It is a very well written and a wonderful tribute. I like "...contorted facial meat..." Keep those great poems coming. Big Smiles, Dane Ann

As a child my father always had us watching boxing and wrestling on television. Your recounts of De'Ron are good.
