Hear me friends 
women or men 
poor, endowed 
by incident of race or creed- 
as his centuries greatest sage 
Auden said 
til they're dead 
'there is no difference between men 
beyond becoming age; '  
Having long agreed 
I only add to these 
those that cruelty kept back 
by reason God-ordained,  
good and bad 
Need or none;  
Lovely sincerity or un- 
and, of course, greed.
