...tenderest sigh,
A voice so fresh and sweet;
Clear as a silver bell,
Fresh as the morning dews:
"C'est toi, c'est toi, Marcel!
Mon frère, comme je suis heureuse!"
So over the blanket's rim
I raised my terrible face,
And I saw -- how I envied him!
A girl of such delicate grace;
Sixteen, all laughter and love;

The nimble garcons dart about;
Lo! here come Mimi and Musette
With: "S'il vous plait, une cigarette?"

With flowing tie and shaggy head . . .

Molti rifiutan lo comune incarco;

Picasso came not by tenure
nor Charlie Parker;
Came not by tenure Wallace Stevens
Not by tenure Marcel Proust
Nor Turner by tenure

WITH TENURE
Nature is constipated the sap doesn't flow
With tenure the classroom is empty

the ketchup is stuck inside the bottle
the letter goes unanswered the bell doesn't ring....Read more of this...
