  • Please don't concern yourself. Really. This morn there was one pos, one neg from you...consider it fixes.
    I've done the same...it was the only time I ever gave a neg...and it was inadvertent. Same.
    Professor...had I known, I never would have sent that poem. I cannot imagine a more painful event than the loss of one's child. My heart goes out to you. Forgive me. May you find peace.
    Angel.
    So very sorry.
    Richard Cory

    Whenever Richard Cory went down town,
    We people on the pavement looked at him:
    He was a gentleman from sole to crown,
    Clean favored, and imperially slim.

    And he was always quietly arrayed,
    And he was always human when he talked;
    But still he fluttered pulses when he said,
    'Good-morning,' and he glittered when he walked.

    And he was rich - yes, richer than a king -
    And admirably schooled in every grace:
    In fine, we thought that he was everything
    To make us wish that we were in his place.

    So on we worked, and waited for the light,
    And went without the meat, and cursed the bread;
    And Richard Cory, one calm summer night,
    Went home and put a bullet through his head.
    Edwin Arlington Robinson
