To Think Is To Be

I've Seen Death And I Didn't Like It.

Life Is Painful, Nasty And Short.. In My Case It Has Only Been Painful And Nasty.

The Night Is A Skin Pulled Over The Head Of Day That The Day May Be In Torment.

We Are But Skin About A Wind, With Muscles Clenched Against Mortality.

One Cup Poured Into Another Makes Different Waters; Tears Shed By One Eye Would Blind If Wept Into Another's Eye. The Breast We Strike In Joy Is Not The Breast We Strike In Pain; Any Man's Smile Would Be Consternation On Another's Mouth.
