Better silent

Than in dragnet

Of a noisy majority



Better nameless

Than in fame

On a fizzy mount


Better lockdown 

Than in freedom

Better absent

Than in count

At a worry wagon


Better fruitless

Than in riches

Better naked

On a royal street 


Better hopeless

Of a false knowledge 


Better homeless

Than in comfort

On a wolf's couch


Better foolish

Than in classroom

Of a greedy dog 


Better jobless

Than in peril

Of a forced labour
