On being asked for a War



I think it better that in times like these A poet's mouth be silent, for in truth We have no gift to set a statesman right,

On being asked for a War
I think it better that in times like these
A poet's mouth be silent, for in truth
We have no gift to set a statesman right;
He has had enough of medding who can please
A young girl in the indolence of her youth,
Or an old man upon a winter's night.


-William Butler Yeats -
