Marley’s Lament


It is required of
The Spirit of man ,
to walk far and wide
doomed to wander, to the ends of the earth,
to every kingdom, clan and tribe

It is required of The Spirit of man
To speak for the dead
Bearing witness to mercies undone
And kind words left unsaid


I wear the chains , I forged in my life
I made each yard, link by link
In the foundry of my heart , I made each one
Can’t you hear the hammers clink?

Each loveless day, Every cruel , selfish act,
From those in need, I turned away, I turned my back
In the foundry of my heart, another link
Hear the hammers clang and clink

Is this so strange to you? Deep within you know it’s true
You’ll drag a long and heavy chain
Yours is a ponderous chain





I have none to give. Very little is permitted me.
I cannot rest, I cannot stay, I cannot linger anywhere.
My spirit never left our money-changing hole;
and long ,weary journeys lie before me!
Business! Mankind was my business. The common welfare was my business; charity, mercy, and benevolence, were all my business. The dealings of my trade were but a drop of water in the comprehensive ocean of my business!
