I change.
I grow.
I conquer.
I am an ant,
that walks on a busy sidewalk.
Every crack,
blade of grass,
and human foot,
is an obsticle that I must overcome.
As I
'walk'
on this
'sidewalk'
I....
metamorphize.
I become what the
'other ants'
think a man should be.
Although I stumble
on a 'crack'
I do not give up.
Although a HUGE blade of
'grass'
gets in my way,
I am reminded that
my GOD is BIGGER than my
'blade of grass'
From egg,
to larve,
to pupa,
and finally adult,
I change...
My personality
My rationality
My confidence is beyond measure.
I change.
I grow.
I conquer.
I under-go
Metamorphosis.
