This poem's title gives its name to a play by Paul Theroux that fictionalizes the author's humiliating final days as an American resident. It lists "the tale of common things," the "ports ye shall not enter" and "the roads ye shall not tread" as things the addressee should "go mark them with your living, and mark them with your dead." It promises "the lightly proffered laurel, the easy ungrudged praise" and "the judgment of your peers" in the final stanza of this poem, which calls Filipinos "fluttered folk and wildyour new-caught, sullen peoples, half-devil and half-child." Repeatedly urging the addressee to "take up" the title idea, this is, for 10 points, what poem that gestures the United States towards imperialism, which was written by Rudyard Kipling?
