To a Discarded Steel Rail
by: Maxwell Bodenheim (1892-1954)

Straight strength pitched into the surliness of the ditch:
A soul you have--strength has always delicate, secret reasons.
Your soul is a dull question.
I do not care for your strength, but your stiff smile at Time:
A smile which men call rust.
