Unfazed!

Rumors of a man stronger than reality 

knocked down, weighed down 

and still he rises 

speculations, accusations, 

but to his essense--none relate 

none have seen his teeth 

while few have seen him bleed 

educated by the streets 

with intelect that pumps 

through his heart as it beats 

coated in frozen concrete 

complaints never seep 

a mind that never sleeps 

swayed by the power 

if nessacary he devours 

fully armed...I'll meet my maker 

not feebly cowering!!!
