Heroism

has always been about a gainful opportunism

that with the false hindsight of others
becomes more like a pre-determined plan

than we cannot conceive or understand.
We can never understand the generosity
of The Hero's perceived effect, though we strive to.

Where this leaves the workaday dreams
of good will, kind deeds, and ideals of a fortune
for all, is left hanging for you and me to guess at.
