THE STORY OF SALOMON WASTE

This is all the story of Salomon Waste.
Always hurrying yet never in haste
He fussed and worked and toiled all frothing
And at the end of all did nothing
This is all of Salomon Waste.

He lived in wishing and in striving,
And nothing came of all his living;
He worked and toiled in pain and sweat,
And nothing came out of all that.
This is all the story of Salomon Waste.
..............

Each day new projects did betray,
Yet each day was like every day.
He was born and died and between these
He worried himself himself to tease.

He bustled, worried, moved and cried
But in his life no more’s descried
Than two clear facts: he lived and died.
This is all the story of Salomon Waste.
