Poems by Dorothy Parker : 7 / 189
A Very Short Song
Once, when I was young and true,
Someone left me sad-
Broke my brittle heart in two;
And that is very bad.
Love is for unlucky folk,
Love is but a curse.
Once there was a heart I broke;
And that, I think, is worse.

parker was an ineffable poet!
Dorothy Parker possessed such a sharp wit
that before she opened mouth
people would laugh out-loud
anticipating a marvelous quip
Simple and clear...
