A British lord does not bow
facing headwinds of sublime inevitability .
He finishes his cuppa
without thinking about a day to remember.
And leaves saying calmly :
'' I am just going outside and maybe sometime ! ''
Just a matter of good manners by - 40.
I am no longer suffering .
The end does not cause pain .
My feet are two pieces of wet coal .
My last vision will be that of the wild void .
White ,so purely white ...
Sorry ! I introduce me :
My name is ...
My name was :
Lawrence 0ates .
Captain Lawrence Oates .
Everyone must keep their place
in the line to eternity...
Nobody loves me really...
aside from you mother .
I symbolize the caste of the high coldness.
No sentimentality at this moment .
thinking about the past is not relevant ...
Soon I'll be warm and cozy in my mansion .
What's life worth without extravagant dreams ?
There is a deadly silence in the tent .
At the point of no hope rages the blizzard ...
We are .
We were .
Where will be ?
A question that makes shakespeare laugh !
All giants defeated by a pack of wolves
in a dog's soul !
We have too become dogs dragging their cross ...
I wanted escaping the monotony of the barracks.
Those disturbing smells of India and Africa .
There will be no odors in my grave .
I enter in a frozen legend ...
I put on my boots .I won't take there off anymore.
As easter approaches The English countryside
blossoms again, covered with daffodils .
'' Thanks doc ,no morphine ! ''
Scott continues to write for a posterity consummed by scurvy !
Has Birdie flown away already ?
Guys ,I wont be here for the last supper
don't wait for me to die !
In a world beyond men ...
( Dedicated to Lawrence Oates .Soldier and explorer )
