The Lunatic, The Lover & The Poet
I dress like a gent, elegant, top hat, cravat & a pocket watch. I've a penchant for lament, dead babies in slums doesn't help much. The world is a stage, I find though the play's badly cast. Thieves sit on thrones and eat like kings, while the honest eat scraps. My title's Earl but my names Wilmot, I live with one hand on the bottle & the other on my crotch.
A lunatic a lover, a poet Iv'e become, I'll be no other while theres wine women & song. The way the sun could never sleep my cardinal virtues are so hard to please.
My days are a daze, dressed in black. I walk through Churchyard cemetaries, with paint on my face like a clown, drifting out into the realms of the unordinary. I spread my time out with women of the arts, playwrights and witts and a little King Charles.
