Even in the beginning Answer and Question
In me too many voices cry ,
too many songs are sung;
and one will laugh and one will sigh
and one will chatter through the bone.
The bubbling of the lusty blood
counterpoints the fall of tears;
the song today has understood
is madness to tomorrow's ears.
So when I sing my song to you,
as valid as it seems,
how do we know that the song is true ?
or the song and listener dreams ? |

The polarising of the words string together something that needs to be read again and again. I thought the ending... "how do we know that the song is true ? or the song and listener dreams ?" ...particularly lovely. An interpretation: how do we know we are real, what is reality, and is reality real anyway? Just fabulous... best wishes mishmish
