An Alternative To Shakespeare
Román Ortega-Cowan 1935 (Habana)
Nut to be... or to be not!
Choose the alternative,
life’s task before us.
What, why then to be, to become?
That is the question, the quest!
Nut to be, for to be nut is to be free!
Free of worries, and free to be.
To live a life by own decree,
be not therefore, afraid to be.
There lies a choice for those who agree,
to live a life of worries free.
Let's all be nuts then,
FOLLOW ME!
