Oh, wide the wound, and deep!

Ballade Of A Great Weariness  (by: Dorothy Parker (1893 - 1967))
There's little to have but the things I had,
There's little to bear but the things I bore.
There's nothing to carry and naught to add,
And glory to Heaven, I paid the score.

Ballade Of Unfortunate Mammals  (by: Dorothy Parker (1893 - 1967))
Love is sharper than stones or sticks;
Lone as the sea, and deeper blue;
Loud in the night as a clock that ticks;
Longer-lived than the Wandering Jew.

That I shall go with you a way.
Though you may wander sweeter lands,
You will not soon forget my hands...

There's little in water or wine...

Convalescent  (by: Dorothy Parker (1893 - 1967))

Love has run and left me, oh, what then?
Dream, then, I must, who never can be sleeping;
What if I should meet Love, once again?

Fair Weather  (by: Dorothy Parker (1893 - 1967))
This level reach of blue is not my sea;
Here are sweet waters, pretty in the sun,
Whose quiet ripples meet obediently
A marked and measured line, one after one.

Fairly Sad Tale, A  (by: Dorothy Parker (1893 - 1967))
I think that I shall never know
Why I am thus, and I am so.

False Friends, The  (by: Dorothy Parker (1893 - 1967))
Oh, many a mended heart they knew.
So old they were, and wise.
And little did they have to do
To come to me with lies!
continue reading
Fighting Words  (by: Dorothy Parker (1893 - 1967))
Say my love is easy had,
Say I'm bitten raw with pride,
Say I am too often sad-
Still behold me at your side.
