Brood

Over solemn matters men brood.
Whoever does not clearly crude;
One is anxious to win a feud: 
The face of Jude facing The Rude
And I say: it’s the right mood;
The countenance of The Shrewd, 
For when it is shrewd follows food.

Over the life-changing I brood
As I wish to hear The Good;
Not like leaves shake where I’ve stood 
Or, soonest, start mouthing The Rude
And sorrow drowning in The Brewed.
