What's the Use?

By Paul L. Dunbar

WHAT’S the use o’ folks a-frownin’ When the way’s a little rough? Frowns lay out the way for wrinkles— You’ll be wrinkled soon enough. What’s the use?
What’s the use o’ folks a-sighin’? It’s an awful waste o’ breath, An’ a body can’t stand wastin’ What he needs so much in death. What’s the use?
— Paul L. Dunbar.
