A man said to the universe by Stephen Crane

A man said to the universe:
by Stephen Crane


A man said to the universe:
"Sir I exist!"
"However," replied the universe,
"The fact has not created in me 
A sense of obligation."




Really a putting you in  your place kind of poem. I like this it makes me smile to read it. I think that is wonderful. He wrote the Red Badge of Courage, a fine book. A link to read more about him is here; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Crane
