Here Comes Power 10...

When you thought you ain’t got no more

when you thought empty was empty the sweet call of the sirens and the boat that moves— One!

The first stroke jerks your back like a curse you begged for. And with the snap—There goes pride.

Turns out you weren't pulling shit before this.

2! Lactic acid baptizes your veins in gasoline.

3! Shut that hell up!

4! Now we’re moving! It’s a funeral march

5! We’re in deep kimchi and the cox just found another gear.

6!

7! What minor deity did I pissed off this last week?

8! Regrets

9!

10! The finish line is close— not a ribbon waiting, but a noose finally tight.

Oh thank God—wait, the cox just called POWER 10 IN 2!

“GENTLEMEN!—ALL LEGS THIS TIME!”
