Robert W Service - IndifferenceRobert W Service - Indifference
Work rating: Low


When I am dead I will not care         Forever more, If sky be radiantly fair         Or tempest roar. If my life-hoard in sin be spent,         My wife re-wed,— I`ll be so damned indifferent         When I am dead.         When I meet up with dusty doom         What if I rest In common ditch or marble tomb,         If curst or blest? Shall my seed be to wealth or fame,         Or gallows led,— To me it will be all the same         When I am dead. So say for me no pious prayer,         Be no tear shed; In nothingness I cannot care,         I`ll be so dead. I shall not reck of war or peace         When I go hence: Lord, let me win sublime release,—         INDIFFERENCE!
