I will be king

By Adeoye Debii

21st Century


I am he who will be king.
Lone game upon fate's sling,
strutting,stumbling steadying-
pulled by the whiff of gain,
baited again and again.
Wandering,meandering,wondering-
If life is indeed but a dream,
whipped to motion often extreme.
Fortune seems just a vapour in the mist,
with hope dangling in the very midst.
Are best things in life really free,
as Christ for all hung on the tree?
Switching,thinking,wishing
I could have what i want.
Eyes,will and heart fixed on the heights
Hmn!Need to feed this thirst,
So that i can at least be the first.
I will be king,yet.
