Breath pumps 
Heart gasps 
Brain collapses 
Battery acid floods the sewer drain of veins
The mirror doesn’t recognize the body 
Therefore it bares no reflection
Invisible.
Dodge a hook 
Split a lip
realize blood flows in both victims 
One will walk away but one is either lost to a fight for a insufficient title,
false security 
the other dead due to a lethal overdose of pride
Shattering glass is the sound of round two 
get up
Blink into a second of time and breathe in a new fate. Where one stood there are now three game on
Busted knuckles
Cracked ribs 
Pain is just a word
Just as much as victory in this case. 
Throw a left and shut the mechanism of an over zealous eye into a coma 
Splash of comfort sends a voltage coursing through the body 
Maybe it’s possible to walk away
No exit. Pad lock the escape. Break off remaining ties of loss and snap a dislocated shoulder into alignment. 

Yell and feel alive.
Drop an elbow. 
Eat a fist. 
Black out. 
Bend a knee. 
Submit. 
Final blow.
Tonight. A body lays still. A mirror left broken. A door stands and will forever remain locked.
