Self Assessment

When you find what to compare me with I am sure the comparison with me will flatter it .

I Will Celebrate Neil Armstrong

more for the containers he engineered,
to line the breast pockets of shirts
and save the shirt when ballpoint pens
naturally leaked, than ever I will rejoice
in his token film appearance
as the apogee of american imperialism.
I wish he had kept the moon as clean
as he wanted to keep everyone's washing.
