I hear voices, see smiles. I cannotWrite anything; five handsSeize my pen and order me to writeThe story of their lives and deaths.Was I born to becomea ritual mourner?I want to sing of festivities,The greenwood into which ShakespeareOften took me. LeaveTo poets a moment of happiness,Otherwise your world will perish.

I hear voices, see smiles. I cannotWrite anything; five handsSeize my pen and order me to writeThe story of their lives and deaths.Was I born to becomea ritual mourner?
