To me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys。 And I have no need of you。 And you, on your part, have no need of me。 To you, I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes。 But if you tame me, then we shall need each other。 To me, you will be unique in all the world。 To you, I shall be unique in all the world.
We don't read and write poetry because it's cute,We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race,And the human race is filled with passion,Medicine,law,business,engineering,these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life,But poetry...beauty,romance,love...these are what we stay alive for,To quote from Whitman,“O me,O life, of the questions of these recurring,of the endless trains of the faithless,of cities filled with the foolish,what good amid these,O me,O life?”Answer.That you are here,that life exists and identity,that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse, That the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse.
