Literature Lost
Verbum volent, scripta manent.
Writing is not remains -
Its own life it retains.
Though it can't fly away,
It runs every which way.
Don't lament writing lost,
For loss is writing's cost.
The Other's gluttony:
Same as lost memory.
So you begin anew -
Praying this time: have you
A piece of what you made.
But the price shall be paid.
