Explanation:

"George Gray" is Edgar Lee Masters' poem about a dead man, who has wasted his life. Gray is the speaker of the poem, a man who was not ready to take risks and see where life would bring him. He chose to play it safe, and did not life life to the fullest, which he regrets. As he says: "Ambition called to me, but I dreaded the chances."
