Into the Mist
Poem on Perseverance

Into the mist,
We must go.
No matter that —
Doubt has its hold on us,
Its smoky grasp,
Bending our breath,
To its command,
Crushing the embers of light,
That emanates from our being,
— We fight,
An invisible battle,
Until
Our last breath gives out.
Into the mist,
We go. Again.
And again.
