[Poem] β€œUnfortunate Coincidence” by Dorothy Parker

By the time you swear you're his,
Β Β Β  Shivering and sighing,
And he vows his passion is
Β Β Β  Infinite, undying --
Lady, make a note of this:
Β Β Β  One of you is lying.

THE PORTABLE JAMES JOYCE, edited by Harry Levin, used to be widely circulated. Viking Press, in the sixties and seventies, had many authors in the β€œPortable” series. I had THE PORTABLE DOROTHY PARKER, for example.

[POEM] ResumΓ© by Dorothy Parker

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.

54 Years Late, Dorothy Parker Finally Gets a Tombstone

"The beloved author wrote many witty epitaphs but never suggested where her remains should end up. Her fans helped complete her ashes’ odyssey."
