8454. ALL THE WAY

ALL THE WAY
I resign myself to nothing,
and will fight it all the way.
There's enough good glee right 
here to float a nation  -  that 
'ship of state' thing we learned 
about in school  -  did they 
mention the captain is always 
the fool? Certain lessons I
always forgot.
-
Now in these fading moments,
before I leave, before the graying
screen goes dark, before the lighting
fixtures fail and the dogs neglect to
bark, I need to say once more:
I resign my self to nothing.
