Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
This poem, I first heard on Interstellar[^], is a really very much catchy poem. Or perhaps the symphony played with it.  Best one to sing it, was Michael Caine (IMO).

Have a listen to Dylan Thomas reading it out - it should be somewhere on youtube.
If you like the poem, you may also like 'The ship of death' by DH Lawrence or the often quoted 'If' by Kipling.

Yes, I did listen to Dylan. But, first impression is the last impression I guess.
I would give them a try also.

In my experience though, "Who?" is a bad one - when directed at yourself, or the person sleeping next to you...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
