Piv

Piv?

WHO?

 

I have always been faithful to my motto

--I DO BATTLE ON EVERY FRONT—

My life has been a battle.

And at the end of my time

At the end of my strength

I sigh!

Who will take my motto

After me?

Who will take my arms

When they have fallen from my hands

 When I have not borne a son...?

 

10/10/78.
