Vanity
Oh, vanity is sorrowfully
pretty like me
with eyes splashed with midnight ocean whirlpools
and onyx, winged with soot butterfly wings of lashes
and rose petals dashed with the setting sun's rays as lips
Golden wine splashed over canvas as skin,
an archer's bow with a crooked little mistake at the top of impish carelessness as a nose,
Cheekbones taunting and high like any hope,
She looks like me over a sliver of a mirror, and she tempts
me to glorify her and me with her trickster's smile.
P.S. Yes I am obsessed with the idea of glorified vanity after reading this side of paradise by f. scott fitzgerald.

― F. Scott Fitzgerald, This Side of Paradise

From F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel This Side of Paradise (1920)—part of Monsignor Darcy’s letter of advice to Amory in college:
“Don’t let yourself feel worthless; often through life you will really be at your worst when you seem to think best of yourself; and don’t worry about losing your “personality,” as you persist in calling it; at fifteen you had the radiance of early morning, at twenty you will begin to have the melancholy brilliance of the moon, and when you are my age you will give out, as I do, the genial golden warmth of 4 P.M.
If you write me letters, please let them be natural ones. Your last, that dissertation on architecture, was perfectly awful—so “highbrow” that I picture you living in an intellectual and emotional vacuum; and beware of trying to classify people too definitely into types; you will find that all through their youth they will persist annoyingly in jumping from class to class, and by pasting a supercilious label on every one you meet you are merely packing a Jack-in-the-box that will spring up and leer at you when you begin to come into really antagonistic contact with the world. An idealization of some such man as Leonardo da Vinci would be a more valuable beacon to you at present.
You are bound to go up and down, just as I did in my youth, but do keep your clarity of mind, and if fools or sages dare to criticise don’t blame yourself too much.
You say that convention is all that really keeps you straight is this “woman proposition”; but it’s more than that, Amory; it’s the fear that what you begin you can’t stop; you would run amuck, and I know whereof I speak; it’s that half-miraculous sixth sense by which you detect evil, it’s the half-realized fear of God in your heart.
Whatever your metier proves to be—religion, architecture, literature—I’m sure you would be much safer anchored to the Church, but I won’t risk my influence by arguing with you even though I am secretly sure that the “black chasm of Romanism” yawns beneath you. Do write me soon.
With affectionate regards,
THAYER DARCY.”

Summer is only the unfulfilled promise of spring, a charlatan in place of the warm balmy nights I dream of in April. It’s a sad season of life without growth.... It has no day.
