Ain't that the truth... I wish it weren't, because I would love to be as deluded as the guy in the cartoon, but it is not to be.
The Kipling poem on your page blew me away. First of all, I love it. Second of all, of all the classic poetry I've read over many decades, why have I never seen it before? Have my books been censored? So I sent it to all my girlfriends before replying to your post.

I'm glad you liked it! I had never seen it before, either, till SISUkid posted it; and I'm quite a fan of Kipling's. It's not in any of the compilations I have, but Google confirms that it is, in fact, a Kipling poem.
Very subtle and intuitive, it's one of my favorites. :-)
