Adaptation to the Test
Life is not always an ally, and life itself must sometimes be ruthless.

The sleek shap eof perfection in mind
A rhythm to pace on the way to your find
the origination of this journey's quest
a destination one must keep close to one's vest;
Powered hunger within the pulse of the spark
delivered wonder surrounding the art
best minted windows and minds
hover about the reasoning behind their find;
Enigmatic hunt for a small reprise
a deadly game penetrating protective lies
the shell of reality cradled so bare
not even the strength to survive a wisened stare;
The following close of a phantom's master
the enslavement to goods growing ever faster
a faltering defense of whatever goal there may be
diminishing the light masking itself as reality;
Prudence binds those whom it will
justice blinds until it has had its fill
duty bound to sell each soul
every effort to suppress your goal;
A turmoil in ever surrounding peace
a quick-fitted blade loosed from its sheath
a tiny beating of that supressed heart
the flowing forever of the name apart;
Closed and sealed within time's fate
driven and drowned at the whim of life's taste
a broken life buried too deep to remember
the end of all thins at the beginning of one's surrender
