Girl Interrupted - "Resume," Dorothy Parker

Lisa recites Dorothy Parker's short poem about suicide, "Resume." Visit my channel for more films that quote poetry.

Resume
Dorothy Parker

Razors pain you;
Rivers are damp;
Acids stain you;
And drugs cause cramp.

Guns aren't lawful;
Nooses give;
Gas smells awful;
You might as well live.

Yes, it seems no one remembers this poem from Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle. Truly a 5-star neglected masterpiece.
