I was thinking something along the lines of Shelley. How about you?
OZYMANDIAS
I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them on the sand,
Half sunk, a shatter'd visage lies, whose frown
And wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamp'd on these lifeless things,
The hand that mock'd them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains: round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away

Heed not the feeling of triumph when thine enemy offers, upon bended knee, his sword unto thee...
Heed not thy pride when thy soldiers swear unto thee their unswerving loyalty...
Heed not the roar and spectacle of the parade in honor of thyself and thy victories...
...and...
Heed not the accolades bestowed upon thee by thy Lord or Emperor.
...No...
Heed, and heed well, - only those words given to thee by thy trusted slave and servant when she whispereth verily into thine ear:
..."All glory is fleeting"...

Here lies...well, you know that.
Here lies God. No, hes over here,...nope, over there... .
Here is the final resting place of the Universe. It's gone.
Here's God. That's odd. It's empty.
God lies here, nothing left to fear.
God lies here, and all that's left to mourn him is the Devil.
It's Sunday.
I love God with all my being, but a little humor doesn't hurt him, never has. He loves us. Can't help it.

"Here lies Les Moore,
Died 4 slugs from a .44
No Les,
No Moore"
I think God would get a kick out of it.
