The Complaints Return Upon Themselves Poem by Shalom Freedman

The Complaints Return Upon Themselves



THE COMPLAINTS RETURN UPON THEMSELVES

The complaints return upon themselves
There is only old age under the sun.
Vanity of vanity of vanities
I am the greatest vanity of all.

Even the morning light
That usually wakes my soul
Cannot break the dim foreboding
Of Hell on the horizon.

I will die
I will go down
I know.

But my People
This Land
Will You Save us?
