in

all in?

to be is to be in, not to be is

to be without, yet

this ‘without’ is another type of in

“not to be”, as Hamlet seeks, questions, finds out is to be without

a father, a mother, a brother, a lover, life

Ophelia ‘outs’ herself and Hamlet

because she was never all in

her father led

and her actions spoke ‘I don’t love you enough’

to be ‘in’ is to be

alive

to be without is to be in death

in, or without?

that is the question
