Excerpt from Chords and Discords

Herein I make my bow to a critical public with that fear and trembling which naturally come to one attempting to bear a mere taper in a world already adorned with luminous orbs.

Excerpt from Chords and Discords

Herein I make my bow to a critical public with that fear and trembling which naturally come to one attempting to bear a mere taper in a world already adorned with luminous orbs.

The unfavorable circumstances under which these verses were written can hardly justify mu putting them before the public. Some were begun in my early "teens" when I was crude, unlettered country waif and my little world stretched out just across a few acres of corn and cotton to the little creek on the further side of the cow pasture, thence back and up the lane to the old schoolhouse and back home again. Others, while resting on my indulgent hoe or freighted bag between the cotton rows; or mid the clatter and grime of railroad travel; or walking along the dusty thorofares of the town; or in such moments which I could snatch from the grinding pursuit of bread with mountains of Toil, Poverty and Hate looming big and ominous before me to mar my vision. These haunts have been indeed too common-place to invite the delicate feet of the Muses, and if they have ever deigned to rustle their wings about me, the hard realities have so engrossed me that I failed to hear them.
