And how did she die? She tripped on some stairs.<br /><br />I am not resigned to the shutting away of loving hearts in the hard ground.<br />So it is, and so it will be, for so it has been, time out of mind:<br />Into the darkness they go, the wise and the lovely. Crowned<br />With lilies and with laurel they go; but I am not resigned.<br /><br />Lovers and thinkers, into the earth with you.<br />Be one with the dull, the indiscriminate dust.<br />A fragment of what you felt, of what you knew,<br />A formula, a phrase remains,—but the best is lost.<br /><br />The answers quick and keen, the honest look, the laughter, the love,—<br />They are gone. They are gone to feed the roses. Elegant and curled<br />Is the blossom. Fragrant is the blossom. I know. But I do not approve.<br />More precious was the light in your eyes than all the roses in the world.<br /><br />Down, down, down into the darkness of the grave<br />Gently they go, the beautiful, the tender, the kind;<br />Quietly they go, the intelligent, the witty, the brave.<br />I know. But I do not approve. And I am not resigned.Snowbrushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00436087215476479042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221839.post-3850611632288256582016-01-06T17:33:40.598-06:002016-01-06T17:33:40.598-06:00Lemmy was undiluted rock and roll, and he cheated ...Lemmy was undiluted rock and roll, and he cheated death longer than most of us will.
