That rascal man beast,
Handsome as a Greek
But devastatingly insecure,
And so deliciously young!
He was the one who stole my pride,
There, behind the Hadley tombstone in the moonlight,
And...

Now dying without fright 
In his human and earthly sight

Dying from old diphtheria 
Still his will looked higher 

He lost his voice to...

Down the lane they carried me that day,
Tearfully singing the first dirge for me –

My Lydia, My Lydia
My Lydia, my Lydia,

During one of your sex-capades, 
In a beloved city, somewhere in Syria, or India,

You willingly met at the cafeteria in...
