This Test
An adventure I've never had
Walking through the wilderness of a new chapter
clothes ripping from the thorns of uncut bushes
a rough season to start a hike
hot, wet, floods of natures judgment
I'm at her feet, at her mercy, she calls the shots
I look up and ask for his compass
"Please guide me through her coarse body"
Will I make it past this test?
Will I get to that clearing?
It won't last long
all's clear until her unkind embrace takes me again
I won't quit though
I welcome every snag I get from every thorn
I'm a fighter
A warrior
She won't break me
I'm fire
A raging inferno of faith
I will make it
Burning through her dense forest of thorns
I WILL MAKE IT...

@SolidStateTheory - Thank you... I know my writing has gotten better because of Xanga. Xanga became my place for practice and with some really good examples, I've been able to see what good writing looks like, as well as write better. Reading helps too of course. There's always something new to learn.
@RighteousBruin - Thank you very much, good to see ya.
Like the piece. Do you feel like your writing has gotten better since you been on Xanga?
Burst through it all, Carsten. You have it in you.
