Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead

An illusion of reality
Upon a sailing ship
Is brought to its finality
By the ninetieth-something flip.
Amazingly absurd, it seems,
To keep playing the game,
When dazed, as if from passing dreams,
You don't even know your own name.
To chase around a single man
Insane with rage and hate,
And conjure up the brilliant plan
To go nowhere and wait.
To flip a coin and question,
And ask for asking's sake,
Yet never make suggestion
To, from the captor, break.
Absurdity, like men entrenched,
Taking absent-minded breath
Until the comic thirst is quenched
And Tom's men face their death.
