Ambition is like a drug. Addictive, fueling, consuming. It calls to us. Once we've tasted its glories, all we want is more. It brings us highs that collapse into lows, carries us to heights only to drop us off the edge. Ambition is a mastermind. For good or for bad, ambition has power.
Ambition is a power in us. A beautiful human power. Hard to define and often harder to control. It propels us to futures we never could have imagined and destroys us inside in ways we only could have feared.
These poems from a heart well-worn by ambition's games, well-versed in its ways, the joy and all the pain, are carefully crafted images of what ambition can do to the human heart and mind. They are a celebration and a warning, praise and mourning.
Keep your ambitions under check, or you may find the place to which they take you to be anything but a dream.
