Have a Spine

 i have a backbone like a mountain

an adamant thing it is

it will not bend

not even curl

to anyone else's will

it will never break

you will never hear it splinter

nor crack

no matter the weight

no disc will ever shift out of place

i have a backbone like the sea

a stubborn thing it is

it endures the ships of burden

each time, with grace

only to the winds of my desires

will it obey
