I bought a home, a plot of earth.
But homes are not for men of worth.
I sought a manor by the water.
But the beach is for the seal and otter.
So I searched for rarer air.
But air is cheap and everywhere.
So I thought I'd buy the sky.
But no, a measly crow can fly.
Now all that's left for me is fire.
Now all that's left for me — a pyre.
