Dorothy Parker

22 August 1893 - 7 June 1967 / Long Branch / New Jersey

Indian Summer

In youth, it was a way I had
To do my best to please,
And change, with every passing lad,
To suit his theories.

But now I know the things I know,
And do the things I do;
And if you do not like me so,
To hell, my love, with you!
