Things I Didn't Know I Loved*

* If you are a dreamer, come in.
If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar,
A hope-er, a pray-er, a magic bean buyer...
If you're a pretender, come sit by my fire
For we have some flax-golden tales to spin.
Come in! Come in!

(Shel Silverstein)

The Last Word


D.H. Lawrence on Self-Pity:


'I never saw a wild thing
sorry for itself.
A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough
without ever having felt sorry for itself. '



Good selection of D.H. Lawrence poems here.
Check out 'My Naughty Book', second from the bottom - Lawrence's hilarious,
embittered and profanity-infested rant about the reaction to Lady Chatterley's Lover.
