The Leader Of The Pack
By Clyde E. Gumbs

 

You know you’re born to lead

It’s clear that is your destiny

But what does that really mean that you

Were truly born to be

 

Your rebellious spirit present

Seeking now to lead the way

Seeking forms of raw expression

On each and every single day

 

A rebel you believe you are

Through much of what you say and do

Escaping through rebellion

Like it is validating you

 

Who do you need to make it with

As you hustle through your day

How many do you dominate

To make your ego feel okay

 

But what could you need to prove at all

That brings more darkness to the day

Who would you need to prove things to

With self-destruction as the way

 

The boldest player you may seek to be

In a game of life so dark

But could pretense and self-destruction be

The way you choose to make your mark

 

It is clear you make a difference

And it will always be that way

Why lead the world to darkness

Is that the role for you to play

 

A caterpillar crawling through the muck

With ants upon a barren tree

Could such a small existence

Be what you were born to be

 

Like any caterpillar

Who knows its days are done

No longer can continue

The life you thought was so much fun

 

But in transformation lies

The death of all that you have known

A new existence then begun

The greatest life that you could own

 

A life of passion pure

A life of ecstasy sublime

A life beyond miraculous

A bold adventure all the time

 

A life of awesome power

Where bold intentions are made real

Being what you’re born to be

No matter how the world may feel

 

A life of ceaseless creativity

Magic and wonder constantly

Where all things possible can happen

Is always your reality

 

A life of contributions

That no one ever thought could be

Divinity your resource

In service of humanity

 

A life of stunning beauty

Your presence makes all come alive

Your spirit is enchanting

Something that no one could contrive

 

A life of love and laughter

A life of purpose, play and joy

Endless passion and discovery

Like every little girl and boy

 

You will always be the leader

Where others always have your back

The champion of humanity

You are the leader of the pack
