Today a man exclaimed “I am the son of God!”
“Lock him up!” they said, surely his mind has gone
The judge claimed he had slain three men
And had him rest his hand upon
A book in which a man exclaimed “I am the son of God!”
The man was puzzled and asked “Have you read this?”
The judge answered with a firm nod
“Than how can you be so sure my earlier claim was wrong?”
