I read some of your words, Catullus,
and in so doing
discovered a twin separated
by millennia.
All that you felt
you put to paper
for others to suffer with you
I too, in similar moments
of madness, have conspired to do the same –
to remind people of pains afflicted
and endured.
Your writing is beautiful, Catullus,
because I could have done it.
