An Elegy for Voltaire

Published by Kara at 1:47 pm under Sad

Voltaire
A name you never noticed
a philosopher you never read
Who knows what woman spawned you?
what creation owned you?
I never owned you, I borrowed you
I gave you a home and plants
and food and friends and light
I sustained you, I smiled at you
but you never knew
how could you?
