Dottie Parker

"WAIL" [of a helluva Frail?]

"Love has gone a-rocketing.
That is not the worst,
I could do without the thing,
And not be the first.

"Joy has gone the way it came.
That's nothing new;
I could get along the same ---
Many people do.

"Dig for me the narrow bed,
Now I am bereft.
All my petty hates are dead,
And what have I got left?"
--Dorothy Parker
