Description
Excerpt from Monday Morning: And Other Poems
Monday Morning
Morose gray Monday morning again, and baleful business again,
And the ride from Yorkville to Chatham Square, jammed with women and men
In the cylinder car on its thumping wheels, and the moody, sad, seared faces
Buried in morning papers, and squalid as smoke-and time-soiled laces.
Shopgirls, salesmen, factory hands, cashiers, mechanics, clerks -
O Shelley, Shakespeare, Darwin, Christ! you were human, your works
Made Earth the brain of God's million worlds!
Through the crowded City of Stars
Earth wandered with dream and toil - but to-day?
What Christ illumes these cars?
Have epochs of suns flaking worlds cast forth this Monday carload alone?
O dreams of David, O faith of Luther, O love of Lincoln, and moan,
