Thanks Winter.
I see you are a fan of Dorothy Parker, as am I. I wrote music for a poem of hers called Resume a few years ago, well quite a few actually - 70s sometime. You can hear it here.
My wife, Sarah, and I sing it to lively up those cold Canadian winter parties.

The lyrics are:

Razors pain you;
Rivers are damp;
Acids stain you;
And drugs cause cramp.
Guns aren't lawful;
Nooses give;
Gas smells awful;
You might as well live.

DP also inspired me to write a song called Women and Elephants Never Forget - I hope I can find that on tape (tape??!!) - I'd like to post that as well. Thanks for reminding me.
Cheers.
