I can’t explain to you How out of place a man like me Would be without the things you see,— The Shields and Assegais and odds And ends of little savage gods. Be seated; take a pew. (Excuse the phrase. I’m rather rough, And—pardon me!—but have you got A pencil? I’ve another here: The one that you have brought, I fear, Will not be long ... Read more
