Rhyme Scheme: ABACDD EFEFDD GHIHDD| Sometimes I laugh what else can a man do | A |
| Who does not know This little ego here | B |
| Braving the void this fleck upon the blue | A |

| What bold abysmal incongruity | D |
| What joke of the gods to make a mock of me | D |

| Across my sense to make a mock of me | D |

| This chance blown seed of flesh and fire that I | H |
| Should front the dread immensity the all | I |
| Shocking the silence with my futile cry | H |

| What joke of the gods to make a mock of me | D |
