All men

I\'ve wandered through Dante\'s inferno, heaven and purgatory,

traveled Ulysses\' journey, fished with Hemmingway, lived his story,

I have fought Tolstoy\'s wars, battled the windmills of Cervantes,

pondered the politics of Plato, dipped deep Melvil\'s daunting seas,

endured Hardy\'s loss and lack of luck, Steinbeck\'s unjust poverty,

floated with Tom and Huck, suffered the mental turmoil of Dostoevsky

I have lived in the woods of Thoreau, sat under the Bodhi tree,

made Dicken\'s ultimate sacrifice, been on the cross at Calvery

I am all men and their story
