You don't know the tears;
they recycle now: they're OLD grief.
Nothing's "new"; same ache.
Life-cycle, infinite Life....
"Joy Of Being..." dulls Fate's knife.
Author's Notes/Comments:
There was a poem published in a national weekly magazine, around 1955~56. The last line in it was "The Joy Of Just BEING Cuts Like A Knife"; if you know the poet and the name of the publication, prove it to me, and I will buy the rights to that poem. R.S.V.P. Merci.
P.S. I forget why the title is "I".
