“I’m a hero”

I exclaimed

And climbed a mountain

To be famed

“And watch me jump

And watch me soar

Oh, mere mortals

It’s too much for

You to take”

I so, so longed

To be renowned

With a plaque of gold

And my experience sold

I want to be the Arm

that battles the Strong

I want to be the Shake

That wields the Speare

So by the top

I take the final stride

To pose before God

And claim pending pride

“I will rattle the world

with one hefty knock

Oh, if only my foot

Hadn’t missed the rock”
