it is better to be a part of beauty
for one instant and then cease to
exist than to exist forever
and never be a part of beauty

Life is one damned kitten after another." Mehitabel the Alley Cat
Don MarquisI never think at all when I write
nobody can do two things at the same time
and do them both well
fire is beautiful
and we know that if we get
too close it will kill us
but what does that matter
it is better to be happy
for a moment
and be burned up with beauty
than to live a long time
and be bored all the while
my youth i shall never forget
but there s nothing i really regret
wotthehell wotthehell
there s a dance in the old dame yet
toujours gai toujours gai

i look back on my life
and it seems to me to be
just one damned kitten
after another
