Have we found what eases pain, it shan’t remain;
yet hardly a memory lingers that might untether,
should even that be erased, p’raps a wound reopens-
it’s angry eye emboldens a spectrum of jumbled feelings:
tangible only in laconic holds we cannot hope to break.

Hmmm? I get Shakespearea

Hmmm? I get Shakespearea vibes....  Very easy to punch CTRL/ALT/DEL, yes.  Perhaps a little to easy?  Very ... laconic imagery! 

 

With a bare bodkin? who would fardels bear,

 

To grunt and sweat under a weary life,

 

But that the dread of something after death,

 

The undiscover'd country from whose bourn

 

No traveller returns, puzzles the will

 

And makes us rather bear those ills we have

 

Than fly to others that we know not of?

(Hamlet Act 3, Scene 1)
