Ding ding, tsk tsk, the pounding sounds of all the fists






Aching strength in your wrist



Boxing is something that consists, of a lot of rules a really long list

You got to get ready to be hit, and you can’t quit,you have to commit
It’s like being stuck in a tar pit, can’t get out, but one thing you promise ‘Won’t Back Down’








Drown yourself in fame


Get through pain, stick through it all and just play the game

My inspiration was from Boxing. I have been a boxer for about a year and I wanted to make a poem about it.
