Who could fill the boots of The Selfish Giant
be as compassionate as The Happy Prince,
though it meant the end of gold and riches
and finally a broken lead heart?
Who could bridge the gap between rich and poor,
forge a friendship with big Hugh the Miller
for the sake of an old handcart,
a wheelbarrow?
Who could be as tireless and busy as
The Little Swallow flying errands for that saint
up there on the tall column?
What spirit could be so humorous
as The Canterville Ghost, unfailingly unscary,
what aristocrat as ungrateful and thoughtless
as Lord Alfred Douglas?
Who was ever so handsome as Dorian Gray,
Who could do time so eloquently as Oscar Wilde
and does Death, the great leveler,
really care if we are wicked or virtuous?
