 I would consider myself the richest man on earth; if I possessed the eyes of

truth, 
Able to judiciously discriminate between; the good and obnoxiously evil inhabiting remote corners of the globe.
 
I would consider myself the richest man on earth; if I possessed egalitarian
arms, 
Ready to embrace those in severe affliction; without the baseless fear of
getting stained and dirty.
 
I would consider myself the richest man on earth; if I possessed the power of
mystical clairvoyance, 
Able to prognosticate the ominous events to unveil; saving the earth from
possible disaster.
 
I would consider myself the richest man on earth; if I possessed a phlegmatic
voice, 
Capable of pacifying those engulfed with inexplicable distress; put all children without parents to sleep.
 
I would consider myself the richest man on earth; if I could leap from
astronomical heights of the bridge into the river, 
Save scores of innocuous children from drowning; embed their terrorized faces
with mischievous smiles.
 
I would consider myself the richest man on earth; if I possessed feet which
could withstand the most onerous of load, 
Carry the ones crippled; making them witness the most mesmerizing avenues of
the world.
 
I would consider myself the richest man on earth; if I possessed clusters of
teeth capable of extracting venom; 
Evacuating the most lethal of poison from the body of the dying; rejuvenating
them with fresh doors of hope.
 
I would consider myself the richest man on earth; if I possessed the prowess
of assassinate the most evanescent of corruption prevailing, 
Liberating the impoverished from impregnable clutches of slavery; granting
them the supreme distinction of breathing free air.
 
I would consider myself the richest man on earth; if I could stay awake all
night; 
Incessantly guarding those who were philanthropic; ever ready to propagate the
benevolent cause of humanity.
 
And I would consider myself the richest man on earth; if I could possess and
incarcerate the love I so vehemently desired, 
Help all residing on land; to get the dream partner of their own choice.
