Nothing is Indispensable

Here is a grook (a short aphoristic poem) to warn the universe against megalomania:

"The universe may
be as great as they say.
But it wouldn't be missed
if it didn't exist."

~Piet Hein

    Haha, I like how he made up his own type of poem and gave it a name like "grook".

    Well, he was Danish so maybe it is more common for such people to make up cool names for poems.
