Oh! you understand
that if I consent
to live — to seem
to forget you —
it is to
feed my pain
— and so that this apparent
forgetfulness
can spring forth more
horribly in tears, at
…
some random
moment, in
the middle of this
life, when you
appear to me.

“Let’s go.”
“We can’t.”
“Why not ?”
“We’re waiting for Godot.”
