Me too - I've always loved this poem (particularly because the sandwich and nightie bits cause me to bust out laughing). I'm delighted to be reminded of it.
Also, I think the penultimate line will scan if you throw the emphasis on the first word -- THAT'S all you are!

This is right up there with Swift's Judgment Day where God finds the human race too far beneath contempt to be worth damning.
