Coda by Dorothy Parker
There's little in taking or giving,
There's little in water or wine,
This living,this living, this living,
Was never a project of mine.
Oh, hard is the strugle,and sparse is
The grain of the one at the top,
For art is a form of catharsis,
And love is a permanent flop,
And work is the province of cattle,
Aks the rest's for a clam in a shell,
So I'm thinking of throwing the battle-
Would you kindly direct me to hell?
If you understand this poem you might catch a glimpse of what im all about.
Anyways.... Yeah im in college now!!! classes started monday and i actually kinda like what im taking. At least enough to keep me interested. My room mate and i seem to get along pretty well....even though shes a meat eater. (not in the dirty way). I have lots of free time now to kinda just do whatever and i like living on my own (sort of at least). I'm starting to meet some really cool people but i still havent really met a "special" someone yet. Not that im looking that much, but hey i always have my eyes open, lol. Another plus is my work study at the barn which means i can spend as much time as i want to at the barn, yeah :-) There are some pretty amazing horses here including some cute little large ponies which i love already. Im kinda already becoming insecure about my choice of major and college though. I love it here but im not quite sure school is the place for me.
i end today with one last dorothy parker poem
If wild my breast and sore my pride
I bask in dreams of suicide,
If cool my heart and high my head
I think "How lucky are the dead!"
