Poetic Interlude L

Literature
 
O! You be Ryder – I’ll be Flyte,
I’ll gently go to your good night.
Travel through my Antique Land -
Leave your footprints on the sand.
Bowl your heart right down my street:
We’ll see if it’s been shattered.
If my heart’s left incomplete?
Well, Dorothy Parker mattered.
 
Tell me I’m not Richard Corey:
Cast me in a brand-new story.
