Quotes about fist, page 15
Van der Decken (cavatina)
Quite romantic an ancient ship passes
during twilight
with the setting sun ropes, cords, sails thrum;
the coming night
rushes in with a myriad of stars
and out of sight
a man stand with a fist high against the wind,
to eternity rest he will not find.

Who Am I?
Who am I to rock,
to change the way,
like weather cock?
I couldn't catch,
anything in fist.
I didn't win the match.
I ran behind all,
in the playground.
Finally, I did fall.
I never, want to win.
Now, I'm at the same place,
as I always, have been.

People Get Ready...
People get ready because more troubles a comin’
Iron fist of fascism will soon knock on your door
What was so “Over there” comes home to roost
‘Lest Bill of Rights and Constitution are restored

The Moderator
Dr. Iron-fist and Dr. Steel-hammer!
The lions' teeth are well sharpened and they are ready for meat;
But you still have the 500,000 documents hidden in your room.
Time,
Generation,
The nature of things and the seas!
But the moderator was still waiting for your words.

Why the famous muscular champion lost?
He holds the title since a long time in the ring.
But he never expected a defeat
By a feather weight skinny boxer
Who comes from a shanty it seems.
Following day of the defeat
The newspaper's bold head line reads everybody;
'Unexpected punch was so hard from a starved soul's fist.'

Ch 08 On Rules For Conduct In Life - Caution 03
A weak man trying to show his prowess off against a strong one only aids his foe to encompass his own destruction.
What strength has one brought up in the shade
To go against champions in a fight?
A man with weak arms in his folly throws
His fist upon a man with iron claws.

Beaten Into Sweetness
Beaten into sweetness.
Like grapes to produce,
A fine wine sipped.
Beaten into sweetness.
To allure and maintain,
A sizable profit held in a firm fist.
And every whiff of it sniffed,
Satisfied to the very last drop.
Beaten into sweetness.
Although a sadness carried,
Inside would not stop!

Shortie 2: Turn Your Hate Around
there is so much hate in you
it is too tiring to feel
much tiring to think beneath
this drums of despair
turn it around like a clock
finish the night
with one revolution of the
hands of time
get done, dance the reggae
or the waltz with me
be fed up, be guilty
time for change
open that fist.
