Thank you William Shakespere
For such irony and style
I can resist anything but temptation
Were the words of Oscar Wilde
Thank you Robert Browning
For showing Elizabeth a fresh new way
Thank you Edgar Allen Poe
For visions of fear, darkness and decay
Thank you Ezra Pound
For you didn't let the illness in your mind
stop you from going forward
and leaving us far behind
Thank you Mr Hemmingway
For words so confusing yet so clear
Maybe in time they'll understand
Why I hold you all so near
