“Sir, I exist!
“However,” replied the universe,
“The fact has not created in me
“A sense of obligation.”
...A Man Said to the Universe by Stephen Crane, Asbury Park
This is the truest (does truuth have degrees?) poem I have ever read. When I used to teach it, my students went nuts. Tee hee!
Keep reading and writing,
Maureen
