On Beating Em

I’ll change my name to Em
and so be undefeatable
I have it on good authority
that’s how to be invincible

And if you cannot beat me
your only possible end
is to give up on the fight
and apply to be my friend


Line count: 8

For Express It In Eight, 05.28.24
Prompt: If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em.
