Needles and Pins

Needles and pins, needles and pins,
When a man marries his trouble begins.

The Song of Myself

As I walked by myself,
And talked to myself,
    Myself said unto me:
Look to thyself,
Take care of thyself,
    For nobody cares for thee.

I answered myself,
And said to myself,
    In the self-same repartee:
Look to thyself,
Or not look to thyself,
    The self-same thing will be.
