English poem

I BUILT MYSELF A HOUSE OF GLASS.

by (1878–1917)

Listen in the reader

I BUILT myself a house of glass: It took me years to make it: And I was proud. But now, alas, Would God someone would break it. But it looks too magnificent. No neighbour casts a stone From where he dwells, in tenement Or palace of glass, alone.
