KNOW THY WORTH

I sealed the Everest the highest peak,
We doubt not 
I dived into the sea to build mansions,
We refute not 
I made broad tunnels and long canals,
We protest not 
I squeezed distance and bottled up time
We reject not

I produced past with fantastic phantoms,
We suspect net
I can freeze volcanoes and gassify rocks
We prefer not
I can drink seas dry and hold winds in nets,
We relish not
I can disintegrate atoms to create chaos, 
We endorse not

I explored cosmos to weight it to last gram,
We forecast it
I planted the f lag on the bosom of the moon,
We witnessed it
I can annihilate the universe with bombs 
We resent it
I can checkmate God and surpass Him to all
We disprove it.

Ha! Ha!! Ha!!! amn `t I then superior to God? 
Proved mightier and holler than that invisible God?

Pshaw! no more of that blasphemy, you dust and dusty
Pride kicks you to hell, be sure, you earth and earthy

You lily-livered God-fearing worthless goose 
Care not God, know thy might like Robert Bruce.

Stop arrogating to yourself and stay for a while
To see your balance sheet as preserved is Yama's file.

Damn! your sheet and your air and airy spiritualism 
Sure I know myself and the value of materialism

Then listen to scientific truth and follow to the lab 
Where all is tested before said; hence true sans darb.

Hear me first to your chemical composition and know it 
You held tan gallons of water, if weighed ten stones, mark it 
Enough of lime to wash any chicken coop; 
know it 
Enough of fat to making seven bars of soap; 
mark it

And enough of sulphur f or a packet of tablets; 
know it ,
Enough of iron to making a two inch long nail: 
mark it 
Enough of lead for making nine thousand pencils; 
know it 
Phosphorous for twenty two hundred match sticks; 
mark it.

This dear is your own stuff marketable at any time 
Provided you keep apart every part from the body 
Well, if detached while alive, it's palpable crime 
None cares detaching that junk from the dead body.

Hence thou art consigned en masse to flames after death
And delivered to mother Earth for giving another berth
Now accept dear, futility of your howling Ha! Ha! Hah!!!
Learn the divinity of humility to use Bah! Bah! for Ha! Ha!!
