Analysis of Sucess Over Failure



The stakes confront, and challenge the
well being within.
The force disperses, and conflict a
possible mortal sin.

Daily series of obstacles, and
blockades appear to divert.
Daily decisions to choices, and
excursions hit where it hurt.

What is a soul of a figure, and the
making of a bold upright man?
What is the answer to life, and key to
success for which I will stand?

Have nothing to halt me, or bring
forth corruption or fear.
Have neither any doubt, and negative I
shall refuse to hear.
