Dignity Abides

No outcome is greater than the
Lasting flow of respect and
Courage required to continuously
Conquer our temptations
To fault or taunt or flaunt the victory …
Or defeat.

We differ in our principles
Our standards and beliefs.
Yet share a common space
That won’t allow relief from
Overbearing overtures designed to
Strip away the tie that binds
Combatants… of dignity today.
