ringo



ducking and
counter-striking
blocking and
head-bobbing
dodging and weaving
fists up
feet dancing
elbows cocked
knees bent
nose bleeding
heart throbbing
eyes swelling
ribs broken
knuckles shattered
jaw unhinged
breathing uneven
socks drenched
shoes heavy
shorts bloodied
ears ringing
and still
fighting back.
no way
to win.
but still
fighting.
