Aspiration

Title:     Aspiration
Author: Ambrose Bierce [More Titles by Bierce]

No man can truthfully say that he would not like to
be President.--_William C. Whitney._

Lo! the wild rabbit, happy in the pride
Of qualities to meaner beasts denied,
Surveys the ass with reverence and fear,
Adoring his superior length of ear,
And says: "No living creature, lean or fat,
But wishes in his heart to be like That!"

[The end]
Ambrose Bierce's poem: Aspiration
