Oh! sullied creature of earth!
Know not or feel my mirth
Hurry I must
You stay behind in dust
Duty beckons
Ha! you who reckons?
The click the clang.
The glint the gleam.
The glow the Flow.
The stint the steam.
Oh! I tire not in this attire
I must go on
On my shoulders alone,
rests the destiny an stars hath shone.
Weighted by the crowns
Drowns
Some how somewhere
If not there then haa haaa! here
I must strike
Oh mandarin shadows of the dark
Hark
Hear not the gusty whine
You and I shall always shine
Tend you to the spike
Even if you do not like
I am not trite
I am bright
