"I write no more, beleaguered by the flies - That my sweet words have drawn about the page."

 

Walker Evans

"That which I had written ere this hath been eaten by the flies, so rich was the ink to their taste, even as Sa‘dí hath said: 

I write no more, beleaguered by the flies

That my sweet words have drawn about the page.

And now the hand can write no more, and pleadeth that this is enough. Wherefore do I say: Far from the glory of my Lord, the All-Glorious, be that which His creatures affirm of Him!"

~Bahá'u'lláh
