Missed it!
Topic: Whatever

One of the things I love about Australia?  The fact that there's a National Poetry Week.  Which, despite the lovely reminders from Ampersand Duck, I managed to miss commenting on myself, in the whirl of essay writing (done, and handed in on time, if not under word count).  But I was just reminded of this old favorite, so I'm going to use National Poetry Week as my excuse for posting it:


"Comment"

Oh, life is a glorious cycle of song,
A medley of extemporanea;
And love is a thing that can never go wrong;
And I am Marie of Roumania.

~Dorothy Parker 

 

Ah, Dorothy - brevity, SAT words, semi-colons, and acerbic wit.  What's not to love?
