For humanity I do shed a tear,

No compassion it has, herein I am sincere,

As a race, its longevity I fear,

I see into the future, but I am not a seer…

I wish for all to summarily lend an ear,

Do as you will, even drink your beer,

But help each other, even those called queer,

Eat what you will, even meat of the steer…

As a guiding force, I hope of humanity I can steer,

I try to bring to you daily a little bit of cheer,

While trying as well to lead a life most austere,

Please, treat me as an equal, do not of me revere,

For I am here to help humanity, most sincere…
