Let it be known
Dylan Thomas
1914 to 1953
Let it be known that little live but lies,
Love-lies, and god-lies, and lies-to-please,
Let children know, and old men at their gates,
That this is lies that moans departure,
And that is lies that, after the old men die,
Declare their souls, let children know, live after.
