Taking what life throws at me one pitch at a time
Overwrought ambition
Battles fought
Battles won
Battles that need to be refought
Odds on favorite
Powers balanced
Daring unbalance

A Panacea sandwich
On Pumpernickel
Topped with a creamy

Not Actual Panacea Sandwich
Like the Late Bronze Age
Civilization collapses
Another one will rise
Something new will then happen
Slowly as something different
