BATTLE

Here I am again as a warrior I yell it ‘BATTLE!”

My call to arms stronger than any other time in my life.

Tears welling up in my eyes yet not being able to speak a word against this injustice that has befallen me.



“BATTLE!”



The spear plunging into my heart and a discussion gloaming over head before I can even say.  You know I had a horrible day too.   I was set up by a co-worker to fail and chose to fight my way through.



“BATTLE!”



I am doing it.  Fighting for my space to say slow down give me a moment to breath to say what’s going on with me too, to cry, scream, yell, run whatever needs to be done so I can get my sanity back.



”BATTLE!”



Wages of war, threats of me losing it all to gain it all.  Possibility of me taking the job I have now and growing with it instead of just being stuck in a mood of powerlessness, in a position I accepted just for status and money, but should have declined because although academia is wonderful it will kill me from the inside out, but yet I took it.



“BATTLE!”



Discouragement looms over my body like a soldier wounded on the battlefield, and parts with my soul, all of me to never be intact again. I feel like with everything going on I am losing it and with one final breath I say it.  My battle cry.  Dead and dying I yell it again to my enemies I cannot see or hear, but know they are there. I will never surrender.



BATTLE!!!!!
