Steel Mills by Langston Hughes — Read

Explore "Steel Mills" by Langston Hughes on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.

The mills / That grind and grind, / That grind out new steel / And grind away the lives / Of men --

In the sunset / Their stacks / Are great black silhouettes / Against the sky.

In the dawn / They belch red fire.

The mills --

Grinding out new steel, / Old men.
