          Where my pursuit rejoices,
          where my desires would lodge
          its weary, old perceptions
          shall where my fears would dodge;
          with swords and shields at rise
          from falling spears and sticks
          maybe from bullets or those canyons,
          no dreamer's saved by tricks;

          since certain's the process
          succeeding is
          no, never overnight
          never in one punch fist,
          for prices shall be paid;
          by honor, best by sweats
          on bloody, batteted bandage
          unless no wounds you swept;

          for flashing shall be images
          within heart-flaming essence
          a remain or carried, kept to keep
          your fiercely fought for reasons;
          'till mirror both how joyous
          are soulful blood-infliction
          of visions past, today, tommorow
          under their shades,
          you thrived intention;

           for certain one process,
           succeeding wills
           upon invested efforts
           from times you killed
           yet, nothing's dead now;
           alive--your living sprirt
           for death bequests never to worry
           only when life's no guilt.
