A Short Poem


On The Vanity Of Earthly Greatness --Arthur Guiterman


The tusks which clashed in mighty brawls

of mastodons, are billiard balls.


The sword of Charlemagne The Just

is ferric oxide, known as rust


The grizzly bear, whose potent hug

was feared by all, is now a rug.


Great Caesar's bust is on the shelf,

and I don't feel so well myself.
