Journalism

Title:     Journalism
Author: Morris Rosenfeld [More Titles by Rosenfeld]

Written today, and read today,
And stale the news tomorrow!--
Upon the sands I build... I play!
I play, and weep in sorrow:
"Ah God, dear God! to find cessation
From this soul-crushing occupation!
If but one year ere Thou dost call me Thither,
Lord, at this blighting task let me not wither."

[Translators: Rose Pastor Stokes and Helena Frank]
