I do not like my state of mind;
\nI’m bitter, querulous, unkind.
\nI hate my legs, I hate my hands,
\nI do not yearn for lovelier lands.
\nI dread the dawn’s recurrent light;
\nI hate to go to bed at night.
\nI snoot at simple, earnest folk.
\nI cannot take the gentlest joke.
\nI find no peace in paint or type.
\nMy world is but a lot of tripe.
\nI’m disillusioned, empty-breasted.
\nFor what I think, I’d be arrested.
\nI am not sick, I am not well.
\nMy quondam dreams are shot to hell.
\nMy soul is crushed, my spirit sore;
\nI do not like me any more.
\nI cavil, quarrel, grumble, grouse.
\nI ponder on the narrow house.
\nI shudder at the thought of men….
\nI’m due to fall in love again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
