Speaking in general, I've tried 'em all ...
the happy roads that lead you o'er the world.
And, speaking in general, I've found 'em good,
for such as can not use one bed too long,
but must get hence, the same as I have done,
and go observing matters till they die.
It's like a book, I think, this bloomin' world,
which you can read and care for just so long,
but then you feel that you will die, unless you
get the page you're reading done, and turn
another ... maybe not so good ... but what
you're after is to turn 'em all. ~ (+/-) Rudyard
Kipling / Sestina Of The Tramp Royal
