I     Over the ball of it,     Peering and prying,     How I see all of it,     Life there, outlying!     Roughness and smoothness,     Shine and defilement,     Grace and uncouthness:     One reconcilement.     Orbed as appointed,     Sister with brother     Joins, neer disjointed     One from the other.     Alls lend-and-borrow;     Good, see, wants evil,     Joy demands sorrow,     Angel weds devil!     Which things must, why be?     Vain our endeavor!     So shall things aye be     As they were ever.     Such things should so be!     Sage our desistence!     Rough-smooth let globe be,     Mixed, mans existence!     Man, wise and foolish,     Lover and scorner,     Docile and mulish,     Keep each his corner!     Honey yet gall of it!     Theres the life lying,     And I see all of it,     Only, Im dying!
