Shade 58: Champion

The brave man wanders naught without purpose or plans for a goal
The wise man lets nothing disrupt him that he cannot control
The strong man survives in the desert when all lifelines run bare
The great man assembles a following where no one before was there
The smart man knows the right answer by feeling alone
The sure man triumphs completely without e’er being shown
The bold man raises quick his voice at injustice in the land
The noble man quells intense disputes not needing to raise a hand
The just man protects and projects his ideals and backs them with sacred fire
But a man must be all these men to forge his immortal empire
