Ambition

Why should you suffer abjectly?
 Why do you not advance
   Towards success?
  Rouse your rich blood!
Fulfill your noble plan!
  Despite those bonds which strain
    To hold you down
Give substance to your dream!

Do not despair; hasten to act,
 Inspired by the flame-torch
  Of your ideal!
 Can you not feel those sparks
Which soon shall scorch 
   Your name upon History's
Reel of Immortality?
