Shakespeare Remixed

Bearded
 like a snail
 jealous of
 his big manly voice
Turning again
 with noses
 on spectacles
We seek
  exits from the theater
sans teeth
sans eyes
sans everything

To die
  to fly 
That is the infant
  mewling 
  with spectacles
  on nose and beard of
  the thousand
  natural shocks  
sans shocks
sans everything

Then
  the cauldron
  boils
  and the native 
  hue of strange eventful history
  is childish oblivion
sans oblivion
sans everything

To die
 to sleep
the traveller returns
 puzzles the charmed pot
 double, double toil and mere
 oblivion
Ay there's the rub
sans rubs
sans everything


The Toads
take arms 
against
 the fairies
full of death  
what dreams may come
When we know
 not of? 
Thus conscience
does make 
cowards of dogs
sans dogs
sans everything

To grunt
  at mere oblivion
To be
  or not of?
Thus conscience does make 
  spectacles on nose
  and sweat under a
  snake
  and arrows of  
  outrageous fortune
sans fortune
sans everything

Or to
  be 
  under
  a weary
  life while
  the cauldron
  bubbles
and the Fool 
 tickles The King
sans head
sans everything

To be
 that is
 the poison'd
 entrails throw
We end
What is 
  the question?
sans questions
