Well folks. This is the end. It's been good! I'll probably see you in April.
They say pride was the first sin. The first and
The deadliest. Not that I would know much
About that. Being a Jew and all. Still
It is a lesson that anyone born
Woman learns: You are but dust and ashes;
Don't go getting any big ideas now.
Look around you at the tragedy that
The rise of man has become. Why would you
Presume to do any better? How would
You stretch your small hands wide enough to catch
The world? How vain to assume you can save
Anyone else. How vain to assume you
Could save yourself. How vain to assume you
Could create, could build, could destroy, could love.
Alive was a word too big to carry
On your fragile wings. So instead you fell.
It started because an angel had the
Audacity to believe in herself.
