Sly Fox
I have the power of a thousand Gods
I am full of lust and apprehension
With me, game's over.
I creep through this world
Gaining ground, always one step ahead.
I have eyes of knives that see right through your soul.
Sharp tongued that cuts to your core.
I hold my attitude toward life
In a vault, safe from thieves in the night.
I am too much and too little
Too strong.
Too smart.
Too cunning.
Too witty.
I wear a warrior's cloak.
At war with myself
At peace with myself.
Knowledge is my partner
I win, I do not lose.
Completely mysterious and invisible at times.
A ghost zipping among you.
I am my own hero, I can not be fooled.
I fill the air with fear and bravery.
Dancing to the beat of my own drum.
Certain of any outcome.
Study me, then study me again.
I suprise myself with my slyness.
I am all and nothing as I seem.
