The Matador

In the ring of life I stand
with the bull called Time and me
Anxious crowd anticipates
of just what end they see

Alone I stand with cape and spear
And in-ev-i-ta-bil-ity
Time enraged with froth and stamp
Has set its eyes on me

It comes at me with all its might
I let my cape swing free
Angry Time again slips by
Its aim was meant for me

The crowd-the bull-the matador
Time will only see
In the end the fight will cease
And one will be set free
