Forthwith, they marry in just four scenes hence,
a ceremony small but beautiful
for all the love that emanates within.
But Fate, we know, is such a mistress cruel:
Mercutio dies while fighting Tybalt in
a duél Romeo declines to fight,
for Romeo is now a Capulet.
Good Romeo, Mercutío’s best friend,
avenges him, and by necessity
kills Tybalt, thereby turning fugitive.
Our Juliet, avoiding Paris’s suit,
imbibes a poison faking horrid death,
awaiting her beloved Romeo
to wake her with an aromatic kiss.
But Fate, the mistress with a twisted heart,
prevents the happy end from taking place.
Secret news arrives for Romeo
too slow; his Juliet is dead, he thinks,
and flies like Zephyr to her graveyard bed.
Her sleep not ended, he enlightened not,
all hope he loses – poison true he takes,
and death comes calling, his soul takes away.
When Juliet doth finally awake,
her love she sees poisonéd at her side.
Consumed with grief, she happy dagger takes
and plunges into flesh, her selfsame own.
“Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardoned, and some punishéd;
For never was a story of more woe
Then this of Juliet and her Romeo.”

A friend is someone who will pay your bail to get you out of jail.
A good friend is someone who will be sitting right next to you, saying,
"Damn! That was fun!"
