Explore "Fame" by Georgia Douglas Johnson on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Through the land of tribulation, / O'er the river of despair, / When the taut heart snaps with tension, / Fame awaits you, smiling there.
After love has all been wasted, / After every song is sung; / Late -- too late, the world will crown you, / Useless! Love and song are done.
