Remorse
The matchbox lies against the candle, upon
iron stand. Black is the iron, black are the shadows,
black the night, but none so dark and hard as me.
Restless grey sky, silent moon hides, thunder tolls
foretelling what is to come, or heralding the past?
Open window, warm breeze lifts and pulls the
curtains. Exhausted, vacant, silent, be my witness.
Whispering, they all cry out, but I most of all;
there is a square foot of polished rock in the
midst of rolling sea. I hear the approach,
the echoes, the rushing. They reach me in my
window. Come for me, nay, all trail away.
Merrily, oh how forgetful. Hope? There is
a fresh breeze on my face. It tells me much, listen
to it speak. I see the sun in the glass, but it is I who reflects.

Contented Wi' Little, And Cantie Wi' Mair - Robert Burns
Contented wi' little and cantie wi' mair,
Whene'er I forgather wi' Sorrow and Care,
I gie them a skelp, as they're creepin alang,
Wi' a cog o' guid swats and an auld Scottish sang.
I whyles claw the elbow o' troublesome Thought;
But Man is a soger, and Life is a faught.
My mirth and guid humour are coin in my pouch,
And my Freedom's my lairdship nae monarch daur touch.
A towmond o' trouble, should that be my fa',
A night o' guid fellowship sowthers it a':
When at the blythe end o' our journey at last,
Wha the Deil ever thinks o' the road he has past?
Blind Chance, let her snapper and stoyte on her way,
Be't to me, be't frae me, e'en let the jade gae!
Come Ease or come Travail, come Pleasure or Pain,
My warst word is:- ' Welcome, and welcome again!'
