Dorothy Parker - The Searched Soul
Work rating: Low

When I consider, pro and con, 
What things my love is built upon — 
A curly mouth; a sinewed wrist; 
A questioning brow; a pretty twist 
Of words as old and tried as sin; 
A pointed ear; a cloven chin; 
Long, tapered limbs; and slanted eyes 
Not cold nor kind nor darkly wise — 
When so I ponder, here apart, 
What shallow boons suffice my heart, 
What dust-bound trivia capture me, 
I marvel at my normalcy.
