Two Sided Eulogy

The stone the builder cast away that has become the chief cornerstone,


I am not that anymore, now I am,


A worthless piece of stone not even befitting to be cast at a sinner's toes,


The best in everything till the end of time comes,


I am not that anymore, now I am,


The worst even if the worst is still yet to come,


The king and pride of my people,


I am not that anymore, now I am,


The outcast, the prodigal son who wouldn't be welcomed if he comes back home,


The bravest of all men, I defeated death and got married to life,


I am not that anymore, now I am,


A powerless and spineless coward, a yellow belly who can't even fight for his right,


A shooting Star travelling along with the skies and granting wishes all over the earth,


I am not that anymore, now I am,


A little useless debris of a dismembered meteor which never made it across the milky way to earth,


A winner in everything I do, a symbol of victory,


I am not that anymore, now I am,


A loser of all losers, a self pitied depressed human being,


The light of the world, the sweetest grape in the vineyard,


I am not that anymore, now I am,


A companion of darkness, a substance more bitter than vinegar,


Worth much more than gold, more precious than diamond and more priceless than silver,


I am not that anymore, now I am,


Less valuable than a muddy rag worn by an insane man.



Read poem from bottom to up now.
