Raging bull
Lurching lion
Fearless dragon
Ali's ferocious scion
Seeing him fight
was such a sight
Half a dozen from the left
Half a dozen from the right
Blow after blow
his opponents went slow
Then that famous blow
that full-stopped the show
Had received
multiple blows
but could not handle
that one blow
Had so many
on head, but
could not handle
one on heart
Always thought
he had a strong body
but never realized the
weakness of his heart
A heart
that got crushed
at a single
betrayal
The heart
that loved and
asked for no
explanations
The same heart
now has stripped
him of all his
powers
Leaving him
with an unseen wound
and enormous
memory showers
Life for him
was a roller-coaster ride
and now he is thinking of
different ways of suicide
About his fate
he is still in doubt
Out of
umpteen matches
why this
particular 'match'
was chosen for
his KNOCKOUT
