ungainly laughter

O generation of the thoroughly smug       
and thoroughly uncomfortable,
I have seen fishermen picnicking in the sun,
I have seen them with untidy families,
I have seen their smiles full of teeth       
and heard ungainly laughter.
And I am happier than you are,
And they were happier than I am;
And the fish swim in the lake       
and do not even own clothing.

- Ezra Pound - Salutation
