I ... entered the poem of life, whose purpose is ... simply to witness the beauties of the world, to discover the many forms that love can take. (Barabara Blackman in 'Glass After Glass')

The Widow Rejects an Offer
(sedoka)
Beautiful charmer —
you are a sweet friend indeed,
but I don’t want a
lover.
Why make yourself sad?
My desire is in the
grave;
I am now my own soul-mate.
