Ambition

i will stand like an iron peg, 
driven into the frozen ground, immovable, 
Confront my fear and wear courage like a shield
Round my head.
Dislike my self and image in the face of the world.
My ambition is to fight the tyrants.
In their cruel kindness to the masses
I  wait for no angel to revolt.
I do not crave for mercy upon them, 
they have done us no good.
They have betrayed us and we cover our shame with grasses.
In them lies  our strengths and voices, 
I will go to them like i desire to climb mount Everest.
I am determined to clear them all.
My ambitions is to see to the happiness of my people, 
to redeem them all to freedom.
My persistent is what money is to man.
I will never relent in all my dealing.
I desire to be successful to serve my people 
as a follower not as a selfish leader.
