Ragged haggard wanderer,
Why do you run so quickly
To someplace you've never been?
Can what's behind you be so bad?
Life is but an illusion
But the evil is so real
Tu et je, nous sommes peut
So, so small
Lie to live
Live to deter death
Indefatigable et grand, est le mort.
It makes me wonder
Is the struggle really worth it?
Nothing to do but die
On an open road
Or in a cage
La ou, il n'importe.
No love lost
Death is the only winner
Yet, you fight to live feeble man
Fight on
Till the end
DB

Your words have been missed in this forum, D.B. Glad to see you post here again.

"Nothing to do but die
On an open road
Or in a cage

So, true...we all end up in the same place, but I like to think how we handle the fight up till then matters somewhat.

Good poem.

Sorry for being so sketchy in my postings of late. Work is eating me alive, but there's a light at the end of the tunnel. I hope it's not Amtrak.

Really nicely written, i love french, its my dad's mother tongue so i have a great appreciation for what it can deliver for interpretation. Great. The work itself is amazing, and so truthful "Indefatigable et grand, est le mort" Beautiful.
