Dorothy Parker

My land is bare of chattering folk;
the clouds arc low along the ridges,
and sweet's the air with curly smoke
from all my burning bridges.
(-- "SANCTUARY")

Dorothy Parker
August 22, 1893-June 7, 1967

Dorothy Parker is one of my favorites. I just purchased the new edition of Not Much Fun: The Lost Poems of Dorothy Parker.
