Fight face

I wrote a long rambley intro to the piece and then decided that everything I had to say just diminished it. And I'm really happy with it so here ya go with no explanation. :)

Fight!

Flash!

Darkened eyes.
Thunder hearts.
Steely fists tight.
Won't back down,
No retreat.
Ring the bell...
Fight!

Clash!

Spitting words,
Cobra quick,
Fury'd hands fly.
Raining pain,
Punishment.
Tick...
Tick.. 
Tick. 
Ti-

Boom!

Hardened breath,
Gasping deep.
Sweat obscures, blind,
Anger fuel
Burns wildfire,
Divorced from mind.

Leap!

Glory high.
Body sings.
Harsh dance of blows.
Perhaps lovers?
Or once friends?
Now simply foes.

Air!

Gassed out.
Muscles scream,
Beg for an end.
Dig for depths,
Warrior strength,
No break nor bend.

Collapse...

Hot sweat,
Blood mixed tears
Water earth sweet.
Right or wrong,
No judgment,
Save Victor and defeat.
