Veronica M. Tushnov. (№ 309801)

So it was, so shall it be in any test:
out of power in the eyes darkened
already the frenzy, the confusion, the throwing,
lead weight wrinkled body.
To fight so hard and give up so easily
to fall silent and without motion lying down...
They're not bottomless reserves of perseverance.
But then, then-then what?
