   OF ME!

                   A man said to the universe:

                        ‘Sir, I exist. ’ (Stephen Crane)

 

You made me

The human tragedy;

 

You made me

The human comedy:-

 

God made me

Black and comely:

 

The essence 

Of his beauty;

 

The recurring decimal

Of your stupidity:-

 

To God 

Be the glory;

 

For me,

There's no worry:-

The human tragedy;

The essence 
Of his beauty;

The recurring decimal
Of your stupidity:

Be the glory;

For me,
