couched with her arms behind her golden head,
knees and tresses folded to slip and ripple idly,
lies my young love sleeping in the shade

fold our hands round her knees, and cling?

Cease / Keats

Cease! must men kill and die?

who makes wars cease?
might shall not cease (nor chaos)
 
that thou should cease to be

dooms we’ve imagined for the “mighty” dead

they must be always with us, or we die

Plea for Peace

peace of the scoundrel,
the tyrant’s peace,

though justice by thy plea, consider…
… we do pray for mercy,
and that same prayer doth teach us all to render
the deeds of mercy.
            Shakespeare
