Another strike
In the wall, In the whole
In my gaspy grisly soul

Another fight
In the might, In the right
In my tardy tidy sight

Another blow
In the core, In the roar
In my voices protests soar

Another buzz
In the nerves, In the stones
In my uneasy queasy bones

Another shudder
In the look, In the poise
In my raspy ‘risk-it’ voice

Keep mum or get tight
Keep warm or feel night
Stay wrong or do right

Another strike!
