Contrary to what is reported by many, the world's shortest poem is not Fleas (Adam Had 'em), though at one time it was the shortest. The world's shortest poem is by The Greatest, Muhammad Ali, and I believe it was delivered during one of his Harvard University graduation speeches. Though it was untitled, based on the content of the poem I believe we can title it Ali. the poem is
Me,
Whee!!
There you have it, the world's shortest poem.
