Carl Sandburg - The Junk Man
Work rating: Medium

	I am glad God saw Death
	And gave Death a job taking care of all who are tired
	    of living:

	When all the wheels in a clock are worn and slow and
	    the connections loose
	And the clock goes on ticking and telling the wrong time
	    from hour to hour
	And people around the house joke about what a bum
	    clock it is,
	How glad the clock is when the big Junk Man drives
	    his wagon
	Up to the house and puts his arms around the clock and
	    says:
	         "You don`t belong here,
	         You gotta come
	         Along with me,"
	How glad the clock is then, when it feels the arms of the
	    Junk Man close around it and carry it away.
