I was born too tall.
If I was shorter, I would have just one more thing to be angry about.
But maybe I would have been more humble, more responsible,
More courteous and generous as I should have been, as I wanted to be,
Maybe life would have been cleaner up to this point
And I would have a hundred less things to be angry about.
I would be more humble if I had anything to be humble about,
But I have nothing save for my height, which is nothing really.
I was born with a head too high.
