Fighting Words
Dorothy Parker
Say my love is easy had, Say I’m bitten raw with pride, Say I am too often sad— Still behold me at your side. Say I’m neither brave nor young, Say I woo and coddle care, Say the devil touched my tongue— Still you have my heart to wear. But say my verses do not scan, And I get me another man!
