The Pathetic Dragon and his Wrath
The feather stirs,
She lives!
Howl, she does not,
If she did her breath would mist the stone.
My poor fool,
Hang'd.
Look on her,
Her lips,
Look on her lips.
How pathetic a mirror and a feather
and an old king seem now.
She was Christ-like,
Angelic,
Look on her lips.
The Fool,
Hang'd.
Do you see this?
No breath mists the stone,
No feather stirs,
Look on her,
Look there, look there.
You men have hearts of stone.
The heartbreaking ending of King Lear. Had to adapt it in some way since it was so beautiful!
