Never Give In

What are you like

when your back's against the wall?

Do you fret

and fear

and forget who you are?

Or do you fight?

Do you clench your fists and

grit your teeth

and remind those bastards

who's really weak?

They cluck

and peck

and try to pick apart

anyone who dares to STAND OUT.

Oh, they will know me.

My name will send

small shivers of fear

down the skin that should have held a spine.

The cowards.
