What is the world? tell, Worldling (if thou know it).

If it be good, why do all ills o’erflow it?

If it be bad, why dost thou like it so?

If it be sweet, how come sit bitter then?

If it be bitter, what bewitcheth men?

If it be friend, why kills it (as a foe)

Vain-minded men that over-love and lust it?

If it be foe, Fondling, how dar’st thou trust it?

Thought:

“Do you take pride in your hurt? Does it make you seem large and tragic? …Well, think about it. Maybe you’re playing a part on a great stage with only yourself as audience.”
