About this poem
Dorothy Parker epitomized the twenties., the Jazz Age. She was young, sarcastic, published and successful. In the thirties, the Round Table broke up and her life was never the same. Parker fought for every nickel and stayed drunk most all the time. I have attempted to say this in 17 syllables.
