Dorothy Parker - Symptom RecitalDorothy Parker - Symptom Recital
Work rating: High


I do not like my state of mind; I`m bitter, querulous, unkind. I hate my legs, I hate my hands, I do not yearn for lovelier lands. I dread the dawn`s recurrent light; I hate to go to bed at night. I snoot at simple, earnest folk. I cannot take the gentlest joke. I find no peace in paint or type. My world is but a lot of tripe. I`m disillusioned, empty-breasted. For what I think, I`d be arrested. I am not sick, I am not well. My quondam dreams are shot to hell. My soul is crushed, my spirit sore; I do not like me any more. I cavil, quarrel, grumble, grouse. I ponder on the narrow house. I shudder at the thought of men…. I`m due to fall in love again.
