In regards to the poem line ” All the Earth is a grave and nothing escapes it”; I would like to use this line in my novel. Do I have permission to use it ?
Thank you
Jeremy Henderson
The poem is attributed to Nezahualcoyotl, an Acolhua philosopher-poet in pre-Columbian Mexico. You’d have to research that.
