The Oubliette

By Eli Wallace, Apr 9th, 2010

"There is a tide in the affairs of men.
Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune;
Omitted, all the voyage of their life
Is bound in shallows and in miseries.
On such a full sea we are now afloat;
And we must take the current when it serves,
                                      Or lose our ventures."
             - William Shakespeare, 1599 A.D.

"You don't need a weather man
To know which way the wind blows."
           - Bob Dylan, 1965 A.D.

Isn't it strange, Millbarge? To think that someday someone might use my words, the same way I use the words of those before me. My diary might become a poetic epitaph for some wronged war criminal... maybe even for me.
