My homage to Dylan Thomas's classic poem, "Do not go gentle into that good night."

————

Do not go gentle into that good night

of darkness, blight, and disease;

rage, rage against the dying of the light—please!

With all of your might

until I am at ease!

Do not go gentle into that good night

of solemn, irrevocable sleep;

rage, rage against the wooing of the Deep!

Come to me and to the light—

or else I shall weep!

Do not go gentle into that good night

of the ebb of your power;

rage, rage against the withering of your flower!

Deny eternal rest its right

to come before the hour!

Do not go gentle into that good night

that takes you before one;

rage, rage against the gradual setting of your sun!

Before the end's almost within sight,

fight, fight, so life's still won!
