the man who was mortally wounded in war kept on fighting

the man who was cut to the quick by love kept on loving

the man who was mercilessly tortured by thoughts kept on thinking

the man who was crippled with concern kept on caring kept on caring



hair of the dog

hair of the dog

hair of the dog that turned

hair of the dog



the man whose eyes were sore from obscenities kept on looking

the man whose heart bled, killed by compassion kept on feeling

the man whose legs buckled under exertion kept on running

the man whose ears rang with the sound of his own name kept on listening
