"Pretending"

Okay, I've been pretending

Pretending I'm over you

I only hope you're intending

To quit pretending, too.

"Facing"

When you're facing Herzegovina

In the round of 32

Pray to the goddess Athena

   (that her wisdom carry you).

"Surviving"

A meerkat, a boar, and a lion cub

Somehow become friends

Surviving hunger in their little club

The means justify the ends.
