OR -  emily  OR OR 
would you have them remain their own lovable yet feckless selves
condemned to endless conversations 
that bemoaned the state of affairs - still seeking enlightenment -
rejecting the urbanity of marriage, PTA;
blaming the state of affairs on those 
enlightened of Weschester County who ". . . on warm summer evenings . . . "

mebbe THAT's why *an author* becomes so depressed (over those choices) he
steals (hides) away from the accolades of an adoring readership and to this
day 'enjoys', in veiled frustration,  those fruits: a little ("small" this
Author would think)  Merlot - warm summer eve . . . 
                                                   ed  - the oldest (eldest?)
