My Obelisk

How proud you stand, My obelisk, how proud
And solid, briefly glimpsed, my Obelisk...

How wound-rous Man, my obelisk, how proud
To belong, briefly whimpsed, my obelisk.

How proud you are, my coveted Man,
Solidly glimpsed through religious stands.

Oh, my Obelus!

How wondrous Man can remake Man,
Take a bow, even evered briefly, My Obelisk�

Excellent use of puns. Man worshiping man often seems to transcend the worship of God himself. I especially like your play on words, "How wound-rous Man, my obelisk, how proud ". Great Poem
