Hero?

Hail great hero! Hero brave! We praise you hero! I your slave Now duly fall On giving knee In hero worship Unto thee! Now did you hero save our globe When draped in classic hero’s robe? And did it flow as reddened blood As battles raged in fields of mud? Oh hero tell me of your fame: Were writhing serpents fair your game? Did you pierce the dragon’s heart Intrepid hero; play the part When Tyrant slain in hero’s fight On quaking ground thro’ battle’s might? And did you hero conquer evil - Waste the minions of the devil? Oh valiant hero, does your armour Gleam from ventures steeped in valour? Your sword oh hero, sparks a glint From charging steel to give the hint Of what great chapters Hero's Tome Might tell to us when heroes roam Through lands of yore when goblins vile Sought a chance to kill for bile. Oh hail thy hero, Hero tall! Bless you hero, As I fall In blushing shame, I speak to me… This mirror aids to fantasise That I be hero worldly wise, But meek and mild is all I am: Hero naught; unbridled scam.
