Shakespeare Is Dead
We read Shakespeare in class today.
All I could think was, Shakespeare is dead.
And I know people believe that an author lives on in their work,
And they will live as long as people continue to read their words.
Well I say, those people are wrong... while it true that Shakespeare
Did not die the day that his heart stopped-
He did not even die the day that people forgot him-
He died the day that people read his words without passion.
