Struggle

Struggle

She walks on haughty airs that give us pause

Flesh and bone run though us all

And base desire is a worthy cause

For pride goeth before the fall

The time has come to gather up flowers

And watch for stars are falling

Comets have come to grander towers

The results can be appalling

The ocean cannot meet the sky

Though forever they are striving

For one must surely fall and die

While the other is uprising
