Absinthe & Cookies (a bit bitter, a bit sweet): Rudyard Kipling

June 9, 2004

A friend just passed along this poem -- written many, many years ago.

I don't know if it's reassuring or depressing that things haven't changed much.

We report, you decide.

;)

UPDATE: I did further research, and found that the poem was written in 1892.
