BATTLES

author
Marion

He mocks the world
From his pedestal of pain
Laughs at it
Disdains it
Invites it to mock back
For such a world
Can never hurt him again

But the world 
Does not mock
Or reject
Or judge
It beckons him in
A new start to begin
Extends comfort
A hope
The world does not gloat

He fights against it
The world...
​​​​​​Rejects it
Objects to it
Spews anger and pain
Enjoying his reign
Of suffering

But to his utter confusion
He heals
All the same.
Marion Price(2019)
