::

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, That struts and frets his hour upon the stage, And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing. -The Worthily Beloved William Shakespeare

Exhausted

Crawling in my head through the deep, dark murk
Are thoughts of my legs that are dead
And my muscles that wrestle with a queerly quick quirk.

Exhausted from the torment of life,
No longer could I possibly strive.
I no longer endeaver to endure the weather
of barriers that cannot induce the least pleasure.
Worn with disappointment and hate,
The end of today finds me very irate.


The soft, swift night shall tuck me though
into covers of its abysmal, sweet dark
comforting me with the knowledge
that only is it my choice to embark.
