Dorothy Parker - Bric-A-Brac
Work rating: Low

Little things that no one needs — 
    Little things to joke about — 
Little landscapes, done in beads. 
    Little morals, woven out, 
Little wreaths of gilded grass, 
    Little brigs of whittled oak 
Bottled painfully in glass; 
    These are made by lonely folk. 

Lonely folk have lines of days 
    Long and faltering and thin; 
Therefore — little wax bouquets, 
    Prayers cut upon a pin, 
Little maps of pinkish lands, 
    Little charts of curly seas, 
Little plats of linen strands, 
    Little verses, such as these.
