Hamletine Musings

By Vijaya Sundaram
Shall I, or shall I not?
Should I, or should I not?
Will I, or won’t I?
Would I, or would I not?
Can I, or can I not?
Could I, or could I not?
May I, or may I not?
Might I, or might I not?
To be, or not to be
Isn’t even the question, just
Mere rhetoric to indulge a fatal
And fatalistic indecision. True,
Language eases some strain,
And to weave a web of words
Lets you play at being real
While spinning stories
In which, you the spider
And you, the fly are the same,
Caught in an eternal dance
Of self-revision.
