when hope dies
An Octet
i
serve no
purpose here
upon this earth
if, every morning,
waste i God’s precious time,
and when the eventide falls,
by my limited astuteness,
complain i that life is fruitless.
have i no care for the calls
of the victims i climb,
as they dare to sing,
devoid of mirth?
do i care
when hope
dies?
