Description

Last scene of all that ends this strange, eventful history,
is second childishness and mere oblivion.

                          Jacques in William Shakespeare's, As You Like It, Act II, Scene VII, 164-165
						  


Words come slowly now
tossing here and there like a bobber on
the windblown sea; sea bubble floating
on a coming wave or peeking out from
wrack seaweed.  Nothing is secure, tied down
Words gurgle up, then down
that ends this strange eventful history
