Not Ready Yet

God's Wheel by Shel Silverstein

God says to me with a kind
of smile, "How would you like
to be God awhile And steer the world?"
"Okay," says I, "I'll give it a try.
Where do I set?
How much do I get?
What time is lunch?
When can I quit?"
"Gimme back that wheel," says GOD
"I don't think you're quite ready YET."
