Poem-A-Day: I saw a man pursuing the horizon by Stephen Crane

I saw a man pursuing the horizon by Stephen Crane I saw a man pursuing the horizon; Round and round they sped. I was disturbed at this; I accosted the man. "It is futile," I said, "You can never-" "You lie," he cried, And ran on. Today's poem is in the public domain.
