Avoidance

A little less than a human being, a little less than a happy high, a little less than a suicide, the only things you really tried.

"A man of sense may give attention
Even to the beauty of his nails.
Why fight against age? Convention
is the world’s tyrant; nought avails.
Evgeny, jealous censures fearing,
Dressed like Chadayev, now appearing
As we called a FOP—was nice
In his apparel,—too precise."
