Of No Consequence (2)

All nearly came my way 
I thought I had it all
I almost got to the dead point
The last baton almost slip off me
 Even at the edge of my last breathe 
I remain resolutely resolute . . . 
For I am an unrepentant people’s warrior

I warbled to them
“All your torture I already know
Your wickedness I have encountered
What will you unleash on me again?
It is of no consequence”
