A poem about death "found" in William Shakespeare's Hamlet
Death
By
Joshua Rabideau

assembled from the words of Shakespeare's Hamlet.

Who’s there?
Tis a consummation
That flesh is heir to
Who’s there?
The Mouse trap
The damned villain!
O, horrible! Horrible! Most horrible!
Who’s there?
That monster who all sense doth eat
A rat
A bloody deed
Who’s there?
Death
The undiscover’d country from whose bourn no traveler returns
The Devil take thy soul
No medicine in the world can do thee good
Who’s there
The fall of a sparrow
Dead and turn’d to clay
The primal eldest curse
Remorseless
Bisson Rheum
Wretched state
Who’s there
Salvation
Damnation
Oblivion
If it be not now, yet it will come
To die To die
To sleep
No more
Adieu
