HELEN HOYT
After all, what does a man amount to?
It only takes some twenty—thirty—years or so
To make a man, with everything complete.
Longer, it is true, than growing cabbages
Or currant bushes, or a cow,—
Or a fair-sized hog;
But not so very long, and there’s always time.
When breeding’s good we get them fast enough....
Merely a matter of waiting till they grow....
Some food and clothes must be supplied—
And shelter—and all that—
But it’s surprising (in fact, without statistics,
A person would scarcely believe it possible)
How very little a man can live upon
From birth until he reaches the enlisting age.
