Sad Plight of the Stylish Stout

[thedivinegoat_archive]

I wish I were a handful, a pocketful of fun,
The Pixie-type, the Fairy type,
A-laughin' in the sun.
I wish I were a Tinkerbell, to storm the heart of man,
A Never-Never girl, a female Peter Pan.
I'd love to be a plaything, an Elfin childish ass,
Instead of which, I fear I am, the Large Heroic Class.

Joyce Grenfell 1937

Oh, how I identify....
