short poem

i am weary of being bitter and weary of being wise
why do you always stand there shivering
let us pity those who are better off than we are
when i was a boy at college
babylon-where i go dreaming
i am old and blind
full of tears
at dawn, he said
how shall i help to right the world that is going wrong
