The Man with the
Hoe
BY EDWIN
 Poem
Bowed by the weight of centuries he leans
Upon his hoe and gazes on the ground,
The emptiness of ages in his face,
And on his back the burden of the world.
Who made him dead to rapture and despair,
thing that grieves not and that never hope
Who loosened and let down this bruta
jaw?
Whose was the hand that slanted back
this brow?
Whose breath blew out the light within
this brain?
s this the Thing the Lord God made an
gave
 heavens for power;
To feel the passion of Eternity?
Is this the Dream He dreamed who
shaped the suns
And marked their ways upon the
ancient deep?
Down all the stretch of Hell to its
last gulf
 blind greed—
More filled with signs and portents for th
soul—
More fraught with danger to the universe
What gulfs between him and the seraphim
Slave of the wheel of labor, what to him
Are Plato and the swing of Pleiades?
What the long reaches of the peaks of son
 A protest that is also prophecy.
O masters, lords and rulers in all lands,
is this the handiwork you give to God,
This monstrous thing distorted and soul
quenched ?
How will you ever straighten up this shap

Touch it again with immortality;

Give back the upward looking and the lig

Rebuild in it the music and the dream;

Make right the immemorial infamies,
Perfidious wrongs, immedicable woes?
O masters, lords and rulers in all lands,
How will the Future reckon with this Ma
 When whirlwinds of rebellion shake the
world?
How will it be with kingdoms and with
kings—
With those who shaped him to the thing h
is—
When this dumb Terror shall reply to God
