To become and create
A leader,
Someone who stirs a crowd
And molds a group think
To make waves in masses
To do what they believe is right,
It is not enough to simply be
Passionate
About something,
To follow it is,
But to lead a rebellion
There must be more to a person.
There needs to be a calm command
That begs obedience
And emits charisma
That draws attention
And captures devotion.
Love and hate paired into a resolve
That inspires others to follow.
A willingness to let go of self and
Mold into the living persona of the cause.
Without this true devotion
Only failure follows.
So
Be the leader.
Be the cause.
Be the pebble in the shoe of your opposition
That drives them mad
And makes them want to chew off their own leg
To rid themselves of the pebble.
A cause does not listen to criticism,
Its only focus is completion.
It is not a person
And neither can you be.
You must fight all voices
That may disagree or question.
You will find this hard,
But you must martyr your former self
And become strong in resolve.
You, and only you,
Can bring change to the oppressive force above.
And as you stride through the door of victory,
Finding your place among the clouds
And Gods
Who rule those below unwilling to make the sacrifice
Only you had the brilliance to become,
In the wake of terror that comes with you,
A leader will grow
To cut you down.
