bug, isfahan

I asked the professors who teach the meaning of life to tell me what is happiness. / And I went to famous executives who boss the work of thousands of men. / They all shook their heads and gave me a smile as though I was trying to fool with them / And then one Sunday afternoon I wandered out along the Desplaines river / And I saw a crowd of Hungarians under the trees with their women and children and a keg of beer and an accordion.
Carl Sandburg, Chicago Poems, 1916
