Whence
I came running
to rescue
maidens
and fight
villains.
to me
the desire
to be hero
superseded
everything else
in life.
I wanted
to help others
more than
helping
myself. I
learned
a good
lesson
from that.
I walked
a narrow
walk
a plank
of life
without
spilling
my guts
even once.
Tomorrow
I walk even
grander
I still
rescue maidens
and skewer
villains
but with smile.
