To Conquer the Beast
A beast that goes by the name; Ring of Fire
Once I’ve tried to ride but ended in fail
With encaged prisoners, thrilling cries dire
So, long ago I thought I could prevail
My heart jumped profusely while suspended
Hands griping the rails; impair demise
Temper of my stomach far from splendid
Deathly shocked with scare; dispense stifled cries
The face of torture seeks me again
Growling at me but I must venture
Refusing defeat; confidence I feign
Surely my stomach’s misadventure
Round and round the beast tries to provoke me
For the girl that never dared; I’m set free
