FATE SLEW HIM, BUT HE DID NOT DROP, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
Last Line: Acknowledged him a man
Subject(s): Fate


Fate slew Him, but He did not drop -
She felled - He did not fall -
Impaled Him on Her fiercest stakes -
He neutralized them all -

She stung Him - sapped His firm Advance -
But when Her Worst was done
And He - unmoved regarded Her -
Acknowledged Him a Man.
