NEVER AGAIN
Never again shall thou see me For the new world am gone Where food is not a component
Water is rather a supplement
Shelter is neither an element
Back on earth my reputation flow
Like the mighty wave of the sea
Either bad vanquish good
Nor good conquer bad
The who I am will be known
Verily you shall hear good and
bad about me believe them both
I was not created for perfection
Let there be no mourn of me
For I am off to heed the call of
My master who created me
No funeral for my literary soul
Let the wind blow to it peak
And the sun shine in glamour
From dust I was created
And unto dust I shall return.
