Harriet Monroe, ed. (1860–1936).  Poetry: A Magazine of Verse.  1912–22.
 
Anguish
By Doris Campbell
 
NOTHING can chain the days—
  I have no time for dreams.
 
Stop these days, someone,
  So I may stretch my white body.
 
Why do you chain them by sevens?        5
  Why not by many hundreds?
 
I am irked at seeing them
  Laid forever, neatly, in rows.
 
Be the day gray or blue,
  You have named it.        10
 
Who calls that ball of fire the sun?
