A man said to the universe

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

Stephen Crane

I love this poem. I've been thinking about it again for a couple of days now. I love that it is both layered and simple, that it can be taken and dissected so many ways (I'm showing my Literature degree here....). I just thought I would share. Hugs and Happy Thanksgiving to all!
