Nobody knows what the cause is, Though some pretend they do; It's like some hidden assassin; Waiting to strike at you. Childless women get it, And men when they retire; It's as if there had to be some outlet; For their foiled creative. (W. H. Auden)

Nobody knows what the cause is, Though some pretend they do; It's like some hidden assassin; Waiting to strike at you. Childless women get it, And men when they retire; It's as if there had to be some outlet; For their foiled creative.
