A/N: Written for the Diversity Writing Challenge, A8 – write a 100 word poem.


Stronger, Weaker

You call me weak?

I've beaten you twice already and by the sounds of it
there's a third on the way: a third beating.
Who's the weak one then?

The coward who stole and slipped away?
Who thought they could control a stolen pokemon?

Though, I admit, you must've made some sort of bond
to evolve it, and to catch other pokemon
and train them to be strong enough

But you still lost to me.
And you're calling me weak.

If I'd been the one to lose
I'd just try harder.

I think
on both counts
I'm stronger
than you.
