Compromised

Aren't we all compromised?

In ways, we can and cannot comprehend

Going with the flow without being hesitant

Resistance is futile, they say

To swim against currents overwhelming

In the hope of an improbable victory

Isn't it in our very being?

To be daring against all odds

To bravely go into uncharted realms

Of own dear existence

Like Arthur's Knights in search of the grail

Darkest corners may unveil the truest light
