MESSAGE TO THE LIVING

I’m dead, but waiting for you, and you’ll wait for someone:

The darkness waits for everyone, it makes no distinctions.

MIRACLE

Here I lie, beneath this stone, the famous woman

Who untied her belt for only one man.

ON BEING OLD

I was young,

I was poor.

Now I’m old

And I’m rich.

Only I of all men living

Have been miserable

In youth and in age.

I could have used riches

When I had none,

And now I have them

And what can I use them for?

ON HOMER

Let Homer be worshiped as a god, if he is a god.

But if not a god, let him appear godlike all the same.
