DESPAIR
Despair at the death of friends
Despair at their sufferings in illness
Despair at loss of powers
Despair at one's own pain
Despair the violence of the world
Despair at the evil thriving
Despair at the haters heard
Despair at human stupidity
Despair at failure in work
Despair at inability to begin again
Despair at inevitable decline
Despair at nothingness forever
Despair
