The Coal Bin




        (Look First on This)

He’s full of mirth, he wants to dance
     He lacks no joy that you could name;
He is too full for utterance,
     Because his coal bin is the same.

         (And Then on This)

He’s full of grief, he’s in a mess,
     He feels as though he’d lost the game;
He’s simply full of emptiness,
     Because his coal bin is the same.
