Sleeping man,
On my sofa,
Do I wake him?
Do I leave him?
Do I take a heavy book,
Draw back,
And cleave him?

  1. Which book would you take to cleave the poor man?
    A good one? A bad one? A funny one? Or a thought-provoking one?

  2. I'd probably take 'War and Peace' mainly because of the heft, but also because it elegantly demonstrates the dichotomy of his slumber and my reaction to it.
