    EPIGRAPH: A poet is like the birds of passage... They pass singing in the distance, the world Knows nothing of them except their voice... I was singing, my friends, as a man breathes, As a bird mourns, as the wind sighs, As murmurs float on flowing water.
    FROM: Le Poete Mourant, (1823), Poem, France
