BITING THE DUST.
Do you ever hate yourself thoroly,
deeply, darkly? Do you ever want to
kick yourself soundly, and do you
wish you could simply blot out the
doings of one day or one hour or even
fifteen minutes? oh, the deeds you
have done are not terrible things, but
Just little dumb things that make you
think your head is solid ivory and
uncarved at that Do you ever have
an ashes of roses taste in your mouth
all day because of some dumbness
Do you ever feel stupid and like a
stick and wonder how any one tO1er-
ates you and you hate all your
clothes, most of your family and the
rest of the world ? Do you ever need
shampoo. a manicure, a facial, a
new pair of shoes and a straw suit
case at the same tirne2 Do you ever
feel as if you were inside like the
awkward boy who kicks up the rug
and stumbles over the furniture is
outside? DO you ever remember all
the things you've said that weren't
clever and count the bones you have
pulled? Do you ever feel like a
smiling image of some heather god :?
And then do you begin over again
and wonder how anyone could have
been so utterly stupid? Do you, 1
\ wonder? Well, you aren't the only
one!
