pete
as
i
the
lake
passed
me
by
i
suddenly
felt
sad
.
aloud
i
said
: "
who
do
i
feel
sad
for
?
i
surely
have
no
reason
to
feel
sad
for
myself
."
the
darkness
provided
no
answer
,
so
i
kept
peddling,
looking
up
at
mars
as
he
came
in
to
view
.
are
the
gods
so
jealous
that
by
living
in
a
house
marked
by
dionysus,
and
spending
my
life
in
transit
beneath
mars
,
that
they
tear
at
my
soul
,
leaving
it
open
for
the
world's
ill
to
flood
in
,
even
when
i'm
so
isolated
from
the
news
,
hearing
things
third
hand
at
best
?
there
is
no
clarity
in
the
dionysian
peace
,
no
peace
in
martian
clarity
. merely
existence
,
and
that
is
what
i
strive
for
.
