Inside the Ropes

Inside the Ropes

a clash
in characters
humility versus hubris
makes
for a good fight

a clash
in styles
brawler versus boxer
makes
for a good fight

without clashes
and conflict
the fights
aren't worth a
shit

and 
without a fight
it's just two bums
wasting
their time
inside
the ropes

when you're born
to fight
it may seem
stupid
or unfair
that all there is
is what's
inside 
the ropes
but that's the way it goes
no matter what
you're born
to do
