Life doesn't speak
it knows not how
lest it were to displease
with no favours to endow
it's not our duty
not then, not now
to coax or chide
to none would it bow
it knows not how
lest it were to displease
with no favours to endow
it's not our duty
not then, not now
to coax or chide
to none would it bow
* after Emily Dickinson
(M/Victoria, Australia)
