FORGET IT.
If you see a tall fellow ahead of a crowd, A leader of men, marching fearless and proud, And you know of a tale whose mere telling aloud Would cause his proud head to in anguish be bowed. It’s a pretty good plan to forget it. If you know of a skeleton hidden away, in a closet and guarded and kept from the day Tn the dark; and whose showing, whose sudden display Would cause grief and sorrow and lifelong dismay, It’s a pretty good plan to forget it. If you know of a thing that will darken the joy Of a man or a woman, a a boy. That will wipe out a smile, or the least way annoy A fellow or cause any gladness to cloy, j/’q q, pretty good plan to forget it. —Judd Mortimer Lewis.
