Potato Blossom Songs and Jigs

Carl Sandburg

In Burlington long ago   
And later again in Ashtabula   
I said to myself:   
  I wonder how far Ophelia went with Hamlet.         
What else was there Shakespeare never told?   
There must have been something.   
If I go bugs I want to do it like Ophelia.   
There was class to the way she went out of her head.
