Doom on the sun!”
Before death takes you, O take back this.”

“Consider his life which was valueless
In terms of employment, hotel ledgers, news files.

Ask. Was so much expenditure justified
On the death of one so young and so silly
Lying under the olive tree, O world, O death?”
—Stephen Spender (1909–1995)
