OF INTEREST IN THE
SOCIAL REALM
WATCH YOURSELF GO BY
Just stand aside and watch yourself
go by;
Think of yourself as “he” instead of “I”
.Note closely, as in other men you note,
The bag-kneed trousers and the seedy
coat.
Pick flaws, find fault, forget the man
is you;
Confront yourself and look yourself in
the eye—
Just stand aside and watch yourself go
go.
Interpret all your motives just as
though
You looked on one whose aims you did
not know.
!Let undisguised contemptsurge through
you when
You Bee you shirk, O commonest of
men!
Despise your cowardice, condemn
whate’er
You note of falseness in you any where
Defend not one defect that shames
your eye—
Just stand aside and watch yourself go
by.
And then, with eyes unveiled to what
you loathe—
To sins that with sweet charity you’d
clothe—
Back to your self-walled tenements
you'll go
With tolerance for all who dwell below
The faults then of others will dwarf and
shrink, -
Love’s chain grown stronger by one
mighty link—
When you, with “he” as substitute for
“I,”
Have stood aside and watched yourself
go by.
