What do you think this poem is about?

All I Have To Do Is The Work

All I have to do...
Is the work!
And those deeds critiqued,
Will speak for themselves...
Loudly!
And with my mouth closed.

Caring less who decides,
If my best effort...
Could have been done even better.

All I have to do...
Is the work!
With a proving I can do that to myself,
First!
To prove with a doing it can be done.
