            WHOSE  FOOL



ABBA  CDCD  EFEF  AA (extended)



I AM a fool,  & passionate :

a fool to feel it, & more fool to tell it.

To be yours & young, & Oh, I loved it !!

I AM a fool,  & passionate !!



I once saw that Lovely thing,

but see it through a curtain, now.

Glimmering, shimmering, like Spring,

but seen so very dim & low.



Imagination’s consequence

is that I  must bear the burden

of the dog-fight of Ignorance,

the agony of my poem left unwritten.



I  WAS  a  fool,  but  passionate ! ! !

Better to be unwritten

           or to be unread?

                   Better to be alive

                          or to be dead ?
