"Did Shakespeare Ever Shake in Fear Forever?"

by Jeph Johnson

 

I propose
above all
to love those
who love all
but must
one be blue
to trust
just a few?

with the caveat
in her agenda
to counter plot
and pretend a
song is sung
so pretty
and no wrong
is done in pity

all's well
that ends well
but what is it
if it doesn't?
