Title: The Ascent
Post by: mick murphy on Mar 21, 2016, 07:46 PM
this one is for Tim and Mike, the down and up are not the same ask the old fart he will tell you about pain.

We caved all day in worlds below
the rope hangs there its up we go
I.m like a monkey on a stick
going up slow not so quick
i.m cold and wet and feeling sick


half way up i.m truly knackered
like a fish out of water bruised and battered
i.m almost there i.m gasping for air
caked in mud including my hair
i.m at the top my energy spent


all this crap to make the ASCENT
