The Gladiator

Of my bed every morning out I jump Ready for the fields of life to go Armor, sword and spear in hand Into survival’s arena myself I throw © Demetrios Trifiatis 10 SEPTEMBER 2014

Demetrios . . . I really like your light poetry form here. I do think, like Tim said below, the challenge is getting out of bed. Once that's done throwing oneself into the arena should be a piece of cake. Enjoyed it!! Cheers, Gary
