Paris Envy: Envy Object #2


Les fleurs du marche.

Oo la la.

And the Dickinsonian oracle, for whom flowers are everything:

I know lives, I could miss
Without a Misery -
Others - whose instant's wanting -
Would be Eternity -

The last - a scanty Number -
'Twould scarcely fill a Two -
The first - a Gnat's Horizon
Could easily outgrow -
(E. Dickinson, 574)
