This is Hamlet's Third Soliloquy. I kept the form but changed some words to transform it. |
Emulation of Hamlet's Third Soliloquy To try or not to try, that is the question Whether 'tis easier in life to abandon The fruits and berries of my labor Or to put forth effort against the pressures of life, And by trying halt them. To think- to study Nothing more; and by studying to think we dissolve The pressures and the stress of life That is now natural in itself. 'Tis a misconception Only to be wished. To think- to study. To study- perchance to learn: Ay, what a thought! For to study so profusely what things would you learn. When we have obstacles left and right, Must halt us. There's no guarantee That learning will be the result. For who would bear the time wasted and gone, The energy never to return, the loss of friends, The effort losing steam, the words you Read which will never be remembered again When you yourself might waste Your life? Who would burden And bear the work and sweat into one's life, But to have nothing in return The casualties never repaid, from never Having tranquility- makes me wonder, And makes me rethink the ideas I have Thought as right Thus the word "try" should no longer exist, And thus trying should be nothing but a dream that Is cast out of the mind And thought of no more With this regard I believe I am right And trying loses its appeal forever |
