absolescent breed of heroes, and not weep?
Unicorns, almost,
for they are falling into two legends
in which their stupidity and chivalry
are celebrated. Each, fool and herb, will be an immortal.”

why do you waste your time
on childish things alone?”

and cast off this honesty
toward your lover.”

The lord of my breath
is still in my heart.
No doubt he’ll hear you.””
