Making Napoleon

As we are just

Begun we slowly

Crawl to our feet

Draw ourselves against gravity's

Eternal weight

Feel the weight of the world

Grapple with us for the first of a 

Hundred years

In this beginning

Just standing makes us

King of all 

Laughing as we fall

Me, I, Mine

None of it will escape me

Over all, under none

People will not

Quietly laugh at my 

Regal stance

Soon it will not wobble

They will be the ones dropping

Under the weight of the world

Vague dreams of glory and might

We will not be, but will be Me

X      I mark the spot I will stand on: the

Zenith of the world's weight.

They discuss what I will be when I enter the world.

I don't understand what they mean.

I will be the world.

I enjoyed this. The confident voice of it stood out to me the most, well done. I look forward to reading more of your work.
