D. C. Poet Lyric

Stronger

You know
I'm stronger
than that..

You 
keep trying..
to break my back..
to keep me 
hunched over..
to take away
my snap..

You know
I'm stronger
than that..

Yesterday..
you were working
on my shoulders..
today..
you were dragging me
in my tracks..
the pain 
in my legs..
kept coming back..

You keep trying
to attack..

You 
can't stop me
Old Age..

This is combat..
and
you know..
..
I'm stronger 
than that.
