Dorothy Parker - Pour Prendre CongeDorothy Parker - Pour Prendre Conge
Work rating: Low


I`m sick of embarking in dories  Upon an emotional sea. I`m wearied of playing Dolores  (A role never written for me). I`ll never again like a cub lick  My wounds while I squeal at the hurt. No more I`ll go walking in public,  My heart hanging out of my shirt. I`m tired of entwining me garlands  Of weather-worn hemlock and bay. I`m over my longing for far lands-  I wouldn`t give that for Cathay. I`m through with performing the ballet  Of love unrequited and told. Euterpe, I tender you vale;  Good-by, and take care of that cold. I`m done with this burning and giving  And reeling the rhymes of my woes. And how I`ll be making my living,  The Lord in His mystery knows.
