fighter

am I a fighter?
Is that the reason?
The reason that so much anger
resides in me?

is the anger at "them"?
or just for my failing
To be steady and sure
a lighthouse for "them"

Mwa speaks of justice
But knows evidence of that is so far and few
And I would gladly sidestep my share
If only it would come to you

where are the happy endings?
do they only live in storybooks?
our only revenge is the happy moments
the nanoseconds of bliss

so hold my hand-or post a hug
and let me smile at you
together we may save ourselves
or at the least,
enjoy
a
moment
or
two

next tag: pugilist or fighter or anything that is calling to be said
