The Gag Of Being
If life is a joke, and death is the punchline, Man is the gag of Being; An ape who fancies himself a God, Bringing hilarity to the latter... Longing for eternity, slave to infirmity... Just when he thinks he's got it all sorted... KABOOM! (....With a silk handkerchief tied around his gruesome appetites...) * "Man is the poem of Being" - Martin Heidegger
