Chapter Heading

by Ernest Hemingway

Chapter Heading was published in Hemingway's collection, Three Stories and Ten Poems (1923), retrieved from Wikisource.

For we have thought the longer thoughts
And gone the shorter way.
And we have danced to devils' tunes,
Shivering home to pray;
To serve one master in the night,
Another in the day.
