Lightning Rod

You always had the gumption.

Lived life to a code.

Were willing to go against the grain for what is right.

Made unpopular choices and stood firm.

Believed.

Had spine.

But life beat you down.

No need to come looking for me.

No longer afraid.

Pour it on.

Flip the switch.

I stand ready.

Angry clouds.

Wind.

Tears.

Pain.

Darkness.

Insanity.

In your face.

Deal with it.

Craaaaaaaack!

Boooooooom!

Sizzzzzzzzle!

Traaaaaaaaveling.

Tried and fried.

Feel the juice.

I am the ...
