Davin wonders
if life is
a noun or a verb.
A gift or a run,
a curse or a wrestling match.
Earnestly he seeks
the answer to this question,
not knowing
that it is the same question
that Hamlet asks, and Oedipus,
and all of the tragic heroes
who have made it to fame.
Davin searches
for his answer
and will find it
when he writes
his life.
To have or to live
either wayy, the answer may lie in
The Macarena
If a fellow can do the Macarena in public, in his pajamas,
then he CLEARLY already knows
the answer to this and all questions.
