To repeat this lap I am

By Gracious Egedegbe (TheGray)

Cast down among the lasts
To repeat this lap I am
Cursed be the ties that bind
This genius' brain to Satan's hide

Of several hopes, I had none
Save the grace of The Great One
But now my sins do witness
Against me, against mercy

Justice now is served
And I am to run with my juniors
To be blessed I am
With the blessings of my indiscipline

To run again demands of the soul
Of its hope, of its pride, of its life
But to quit the race
Would be to quit the life I know

Torn between life and pride
I choose life lest I die
But I shall run again with pride
And dare to fail again
