The Best At His Worst
.
The shrewder one
may yet triumph
tonight
in this maddening
heat of the
prizefight
where ferocity reigns
and might
is right.
Here the last
can still outlast
the first,
for even the best
can be at his
worst,
either way it goes,
egos burn and
burst.
Victor and vanquished
will stay
remorseless.
They'll fight again till
they'll be both
lifeless.
For to fight and win
is an unfinished
business!
