Paul Laurence Dunbar - VagrantsPaul Laurence Dunbar - Vagrants
Work rating: Low


Long time ago, we two set out,     My soul and I.     I know not why,   For all our way was dim with doubt.     I know not where     We two may fare:   Though still with every changing weather,   We wander, groping on together.   We do not love, we are not friends,     My soul and I.     He lives a lie;   Untruth lines every way he wends.     A scoffer he     Who jeers at me:   And so, my comrade and my brother,   We wander on and hate each other.   Ay, there be taverns and to spare,     Beside the road;     But some strange goad   Lets me not stop to taste their fare.     Knew I the goal     Toward which my soul   And I made way, hope made life fragrant:   But no. We wander, aimless, vagrant!
