You Shall Love Your Crooked Neighbour/ With Your Crooked Heart

SAMSUNG CAMERA PICTURES

‘O look, look in the mirror,
   O look in your distress:
Life remains a blessing
   Although you cannot bless.

‘O stand, stand at the window
   As the tears scald and start;
You shall love your crooked neighbour
   With your crooked heart.'



W.H. Auden, 
from "As I Walked Out One Evening"
(It's wonderful, read it!)
