Admiration

Admiration

By LadyRivka

I have raced, fought, battled

My way up to the Second

Motorball league- because you urge me on.

Deep inside, I could give you

So much gratitude- but I can't

Show it, nor will you accept it.

You challenge me to an arm-wrestling

Match. I admire you so much, I will put my heart,

The very source of my life, on the line for you.

The good doctor watches,

Nervously, not knowing which of

His patients he can trust.

You put out eighty percent

Of my arm circuitry, but I paralyze you

And break the weak point of your arm.

Putting my heart back inside

My chest, I know you'll be a worthy competitor-

Jashugan.
