Resolved
This is my space, my firm position
anchored upon the firmanent
No push or prod can make me budge
my locus' ever permanent
No entreaty nor allure shall pull
or waver my good judgement
No threat can raise me to my feet
nor curses cause my movement
I am colossus; a monolith
your swords smash on my battlements
Archangels fail to breach my walls
only God, could make a dent
Throw down your arms, move on from here,
return from whence you came
In time, when people tell the tale
for you there'll be no shame
For this I say, I am resolved,
immovable and bound
No force, no foe, nor destiny
to shake me can be found
I promise you, that at my death
these words will yet be proved
I am set and resolute
and I will not be moved
