Magnificent Man

Man, man, magnificent man;
Creates forces that outshine the stars.
He can shoot himself up and tap-dance on the Moon;
Or hurl himself clear out to Mars.

He can unleash a force that evaporates steel
Since he's learned how an atom behaves.
Yet he has no recourse but to bow to the force
That summons the dead from their graves.
from Johnny Hart (BC comic strip Nov 1994)
