Dark and beautiful.
See for yourself some of my favourite parts:
He did not wear his scarlet coat,
For blood and wine are red,
And blood and wine were on his hands
When they found him with the dead,
The poor dead woman whom he loved,
And murdered in her bed.
(...)
Yet each man kills the thing he loves,
By each let this be heard,
Some do it with a bitter look,
Some with a flattering word,
The coward does it with a kiss,
The brave man with a sword!
Some kill their love when they are young,
And some when they are old;
Some strangle with the hands of Lust,
Some with the hands of Gold:
The kindest use a knife, because
The dead so soon grow cold.
Some love too little, some too long,
Some sell, and others buy;
Some do the deed with many tears,
And some without a sigh:
For each man kills the thing he loves,
Yet each man does not die.

No auge de sua carreira literária, Oscar Wilde processou um Marquês que lhe caluniava .O Marquês inverteu o processo e Oscar Wilde acabou indo para a prisão. Lá ele escreveu o seu mais belo poema onde ele procura entender porque o próprio homem se destrói, porque o homem destrói aquilo que mais ama.
