[hometext] => This poem is based on the character Pierre Bezukhov from Leo Tolstoy's immortal novel "War and Peace." Pierre is my favorite character.
[bodytext] => Yellowed pages, old wisdom, they comfort like the fireplace.
Wineglass kissing his bifocals near the opened book, which smells of mildew. Remembering Helene, and her first smile, something inside awakens. The fire cracks, and a page is turned by the draft. The trees serenade near the window, knowing that they are the Count's musicians. They knew the Countess well. He blinks. Too much quiet kills often, and without warning. It smells of burning wood.
