Dumpty

Imagine if I were a better man:
I could express more widely what I mean
Than I, at present fallen, ever can,
In ways that no one yet has ever seen,
For words are servants of the great and good,
And work their will in beauty far, far more
Than for us lesser beings. If I would
Sing praise to you sufficiently, therefore,
I would require your own goodness to
Permit the use of words so great and high;
For there is such divinity in you
That you could harness words the way that I
Could never do. So lend to me your worth
That I may praise your glory to the earth.
