You might visibly notice
The communication of muscles
Within my athletic feet and arms
Expressing my might openly
The rough rock that sits tall
Under my body of stone
Refuses to absorb any shocks
That rock my heart invisible
The naked truth that tickles me
Is this black posture of thinking
For eons as decided by the creator
As it troubles my naked display of thoughts
I’ve already realized inwardly
Thanks to a man of frail build -
Meek is not the symbol of weak
But the only need to reach the peak
Move away your eyes elsewhere
As I’m tired of your gazing thoughts
I’m neither a man of mighty inspiration
Nor the only marvel of sculpture in sight
