13. MEN LIKE YOU

There will be men like you,
      I tell you,
Who are great,
   really great,
      divinely great,
         supremely great.

There will be men like him,
      I tell him,
Who are good,
   divinely good,
      supremely good,
         eternally good.

There will be none like me,
      I tell myself,
Because I know I am God’s failure on earth
         And
   God’s hope in Heaven
         And
   God’s Promise to humanity.
