WHAT ROUGH BEAST
WHAT ROUGH BEAST ON SLOW THIGHS ?
In the epic battle between will & fate
will takes a shitkicking everysingleday
Few are left standing Many run for the hills
Some die a slow death in their Mother-in-law’s basement
So if your choice is between: hovel or hobble
toward some misguided dream What
difference does it make? Since each of us
will die mute on our mat some day
