Expect nothing. Live frugally

\nBecome a stranger
\nTo need of pity
\nOr, if compassion be freely
\nGiven out
\nTake only enough
\nStop short of urge to plead
\nThen purge away the need.<\/p>\n
Wish for nothing larger
\nThan your own small heart
\nOr greater than a star;

\nWith caress unmoved and cold
\nMake of it a parka

Discover the reason why

\nExists at all
\nSo scared unwise
\nBut expect nothing. Live frugally
