And now for something totally different . . .

Here is a poem from one of my favorite poets. There is no hidden meaning or message - I just kind of like it.

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.

-Dorothy Parker
