Where are the brave men, where are the strong men?
Pygmies rise / And spawn the earth.
Weak-kneed, weak-hearted, and afraid, / Afraid to face the counsel of their timid hearts, / Afraid to look men squarely, / Down they gaze --
With fatal fascination / Down, down --
Into the whirling maggot sands / Of prejudice.
