More Truth
Than Poetry
By JAMES J. MONTAGUE

GOING DOWN.
Don't do any work when the boss
isn't there.
And loaf when he is. if he'll let
you;
His business will suffer. but why
should ygu care?
His troubles ought never to fret
you.
Don't save any money-just blow
all your pay,
For if you go broke you can Dor
row.
And though you may land in the
poor house some day,
Forget about that till tomorrow.
Sneak out of all tasks that you pos
sibly can.
Or hunt for an easy way through
them;
Leave all the hard jobs 10 some dull
witted man.
Who will always be willing to do
them.
Be sure TO break out with A harrow
ing wall
II duties are rough or unpleasant
And though you are likely TO wind
up i'm jail.
Don't think about that--for the
present.
Don't stand for rude talk. if the
boss calls you down;
There are plenty of men who will
hire you;
Look right in his eye. and observe
with a frown,
II he don't like your work. he can
fire you.
Perhaps you'll get by if this course
you pursue.
Though the chances are very
much greater
THAT before very long you will
starve If you do.
But that you can think about
later.
This wisdom we never have gather
ed from books
Philosophers never supplied It;
We got Il from loafers and grafters
and crooks.
And all Of these worthless have
tried It.
They've followed these rules very
closely they say,
And II you will look where it got
EN-
Forthwith you'll agree it's tho

To get from the top TO the bot.
