Hamlet

Hamlet

A Poem by Periac
"

little piece based on Hamlet

"

hamlet


when the strong wind came ripping the evening around and spitting tears from angry billowing clouds

out crept evil men and no gooders

just don't go out tonight in Elsinore
let love remain a strong agate amiss the downpour
just don't go out tonight in Elsinore

tragedy spoke from a brothers lament
from a cold haunting pale face
a melody whistled aloud
"to thine own self be true".

while she walked a feathered fawn into my maddening eyes

just don't go out tonight in Elsinore
let love remain a strong agate amiss the downpour
just don't go out tonight in Elsinore

so to be or not to be
get thee to the nunnery
and the tapestry sways

while she drew grasping bubbles from waterlogged cries

we all swell in prickly pricks of a dying poke

damned Dane is thy Union here

the rest is silenced
