“Expect nothing. Live frugally
On surprise.
become a stranger
To need of pity
Or, if compassion be freely
Given out
Take only enough
Stop short of urge to plead
Then purge away the need.
Wish for nothing larger
Than your own small heart
Or greater than a star;

So tiny human midget
Exists at all
So scared unwise
But expect nothing. Live frugally
On surprise.”
