Accepting The Challenge

Accepting the challenge
Or rising to the bait
Often times one and the same

Faced with a heroic struggle
Of unknown proportions
Loins girded and sword at the ready

Or hook, line, and sinker
Thrashing about only to be
Drawn slowly into the net

Both at once and even so
Also the fisherman and
He who blows the battle call
