soul of fire

I am not Jordan before the buzzer,
nor Hewitt, fire on the court.
I am not Shakespeare,
meant for the ages,
nor Michelangelo,
soul full of fire.
I am not Kennedy,
golden in the sun,
strong in the moment of crisis.
Nor am I Leo,
masculinely charismatic,
sinking into the atlantic.
No, I am but a pawn but the game is "immortal" and I am "beloved."
