  A Clever Man :: 
  This poem is a send up poem written about the insatiable drive that an over zealous 
  optimist has of self, that possesses boundless energy, and enthusiasm for life, without 
  fully realizing the implications and inherent mistakes that can come about. 
  It encapsulates Youthful exuberance in spades, without the experience that sets a calculus on 
  ones takeup of endeavours. This poem was written by myself sometime ago, and has only now 
  had the opportunity to be spoken of. 
  It incorporates a lot of the famous and the great from the past, in the speakers soliloquy he pits himself as on a par with their greatness and accomplishments.

In fact, he's so elated at his future prospects that he's decided to propose to his mistress, Jeanne  once the evening is over.
