Alphabetical Modern Man Copyright 1973, 2001 by Allen B. Arthur I am an atheist, I am a bard, I am a communistic, chauvinistic, self-conscious card. I am a dualism doubled, I am ethnically equal, I’m a foolish thought fancier, I’m often times fearful. I am good, I am high, irrevocably involved in the search for the I. I am justifiably juiced, I am unkoncious of kost, I long to be loose, if my love be not lost. I am mothered, I am naked, I am an opiated orchid, oppulence oppressed, omnicient omega, my mind is obsessed. I am perceiver perceived, I am quavering quarry, I am riddle and rhyme, really a rarity. I am silently sorrowing, I am secretly scared, I am trivial and triumphant, my face is all teared. I am unified and unionized, undeniably unorganized. I am victim and vulture, Vietnam villain, I am willful and wily, wild if you’re willin’. I am Xanthippe’s ex-bloke, I am yellow and yielding to yesterday’s yoke. I am Zeno, a zero, a zealot, I’m Zeus. I am like many who see the world as a zoo.
