"I am.."

I am the man at the end of the road,
I am the man in the stories of old,
I am the person you see on TV,
I am whoever I want you to see.
I am the officer holding the law,
I am the general starting the war,
I am the minister, holy as thou,
I am the farmer in charge of the plough.
I am the man with no origin,
I am the man who first made a sin,
I am the man who flew to the sun,
I am the man who is everyone.

so, one is pronounced won?

It's recommended practice for all would-be election candidates these days.

Cool poem.

Yesss, an acute case of megalomania, or what is now referred to as "Arnie-itus". I prescribe a course of unwanted groping to be performed at least twice a day.

I wrote it with a half welsh, half high-pitched south african whine.

Andy Kaufman could have read it...

Only if you pronounce 'plough' as 'pluff', which I believe they probably do in East Anglia. Apart from that it reads particualarly well when read out loud with an Indian sub-continent accent.
