Sintomi di Dorothy Parker (Long Branch, 1893 – New York, 1967)
Non mi piace il mio stato mentale;
Sono amareggiata, lamentosa e scortese.
Odio le mie gambe, odio le mie mani,
Non desidero terre più belle.
Temo la luce ricorrente dell’alba;
Odio andare a letto la sera ... https://cctm.website/dorothy-parker-sintomi/#dorothyparker #poesia #cctmwebsite #anoipiaceleggere #leggere

Two Volume Novel
The sun's gone dim, and
The moon's turned black;
For I loved him, and
He didn't love back.

General Review of the Sex Situation
Woman wants monogamy;
Man delights in novelty.

Man has other forms of fun.
Woman lives but in her lord;
Count to ten, and man is bored.
With this the gist and sum of it,
What earthly good can come of it?

And drugs cause cramp.

Hearts2Hearts -- Juun
In 1926, Dorothy Parker published "News Item", her two line poem claiming that spectacles make a woman unattractive.
"Men seldom make passes
At girls who wear glasses."A century later, Juun is one of many Kpop idols who might persuade us to think otherwise.

Words of Comfort to be Scratched on a Mirror Helen of Troy had a wandering glance; Sappho's restriction was only the sky; Ninon was ever the chatter of France; But oh, what a good girl am I! #DorothyParker #Parker

Als Teen über den Haffmans Verlag entdeckt, bis heute Fan von #DorothyParker. Schön, dass ›mythic woman‹ nun auf ihrem YT-Kanal einen schönen Biographie-Essay über sie bietet.
Typisch: gibt zwar (feinen) Film über ihre lebhaften Läster-Zeiten im New York der 1910er/20er, aber keinen über ihr Engagement als politische Korrespondentin im Spanischen Bürgerkrieg, ihre #Antifa-Leidenschaft in Hollywood, oder wie McCarthy-Wüten ihr den Mund verbieten wollte.

CW: Poetry. Themes of suicide. Darkly humorous.
I keep coming back to the pitch black humour of Dorothy Parker’s poetry.
Here’s Resumé
Razors pain you;
Rivers are damp;
Acids stain you;
And drugs cause cramp.
Guns aren’t lawful;
Nooses give;
Gas smells awful;
You might as well live.(1926)

"It looks strange and it looks strange, and it looks very strange, and then suddenly it does not look strange at all, and you cannot understand what made it look strange in the first place."
Poet Gertrude Stein, quoted by great physicist and master of the English language John Archibald Wheeler, quoted by his pupil and master physicist Kip S Thorne. (I love this chain.)
Absolutely the rule of genuine discovery, and the secret to becoming a discoverer. Embrace strangeness.

Coda
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 struggle, and sparse is
The gain 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,
And rest's for a clam in a shell,
So I'm thinking of throwing the battle--
Would you kindly direct me to hell?-- Dorothy Parker
