Didery Diderot, is his name

Among others, he is afraid of lights

Aloof and aged, he is caged in nights

Against a nation, he rides his mind

Archaic spirits, he wonders about his zest

Alarmed by a spear, he walks to his west

Ace of honors, he picks his price

Awkward to smile, he defies his fate

Didery Diderot, is his name

Aging and raging, he is killed by a bull

Amused and elegant, surfaced his spirits

Didery Diderot, he died in his gale
