Measure Me


My greatness is not measured by the success of others

Though others may depend on me for there guidance

My greatness is not controlled by the color of my skin

Through this computer you cannot see what's within

My greatness is not guided by the opinion of my successor

Though without him/her my sucess would not be guarenteed 

My greatness is manipulated by me

Through my skin tell me what you see.
