Words flung like so many bullets
Across the battlefields of art
Poetic rivalries of friendships
Never to be torn apart

Not able to separate from
Friend, foe, ally, adversary
All are the same person
Unknowingly challenging me

These wars of verse
Stanza, rhyme and line
Echo throughout page and pen
Never choosing between his and mine

Both, humbled, pay respect
To his opponent great
Never to announce a victor
In this great art’s debate

A half tongue-in-cheek, half serious poem about my poetic rival and good friend Brandon, [link] , written as a thank you present

Aw, thnx Rob. You're quite right. We're friend and rival simultaneously. Maybe we're going to start getting a little competetive. Can't say that wouldn't be fun. But I thiank you from the confines of my heart.

The first thing you do when you wake up is hope. You hope that mom's okay, you'll make it to work on time, and that today is better than yesterday. As long as you have hope, you have a reason to live.
