Resolve thyself Into dew.
And, like that insubstantial
Substance, evaporate, leaving not a
trace behind
To flaunt one's ciuW moments.
Common sense and the power of
reasoning defy thee,
A strong will-power bids thee hence
without even a sign
Of recognition.
Only like a worm, which twists and
squirms.
And feeds upon the unresisting
earth, do you live.
Into the minds of men and women
worming your way.
Then feeding and living on the thots
of those
Who cannot cry thee gone. Away!
And when thou art gone, the most
powerful of thine offspring.
Suicide, can no longer court the
lives of those
Whom thou hast visited.
For, when as the one medium thru
which he works.
Thou art gone, only then, shall tils
cowardly tongue
Re forever silenced.
Rut enough Tlrou art gone. And
may we never meet again.
