"Still Standing" by Hunter Madsen

"Still Standing"

 
     

"Tis the infirmity of his age; yet he hath ever but slenderly known himself."  
                 - Wm. Shakespeare, King Lear



And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.  
               -  Dylan Thomas
