I saw a man pursuing the horizon by Stephen Crane

 

I saw a man
pursuing the horizon

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.

Stephen Crane
(1871 – 1900)
I saw a man pursuing the horizon
