To Love, or Not to Love
“To love, or not to love?” that is the line,
the focus which most justifies mankind.
To be a god amongst men, and unloved,
is woe: even wild beasts are not unmoved
by such disjointed souls, the otherworldly,
who fill the annals of human history.
We, being so much better than feral beasts,
ought subdue (and crush!) the bitter, evil yeasts
of our spite: then love these lonely souls, men
and women like the wielder of this pen.
