Arthur Adolph “Harpo” Marx (1888)

Harpo was a member of the American comedy team known as the Marx Brothers. The brothers enjoyed success in vaudeville, on Broadway, and in motion pictures from the early 1900s to about 1950.

I am,
(© poetic thought by GeorgeB @ euzicasa)

I’m hungry I’m thirsty I’m human

I’m tired I’m scared I’m human

I’m sick I’m not cured I’m dying

Can’t breathe on my own I’m dying

I’m getting better I’m happy I AM-
