So very cute red and white, and blue and white ticking style girls frocks from the UK. Great find from a little California thrift shop!
Thinking of all things Trump brings me to a poem by Anna Akhmatova's girlfriend, Nikolai Gumilev, before (obviously, obviously, obviously BEFORE) he was stood up against that wall and shot. "The Lost Tram" gets anthologized much more..but this darkly funny little one...
THE FOUNDERS
Romulus and Remus went up a hill,
a wild and silent hill.
Said Romulus, "Here there'll be a city."
Said Remus, "A city like the sun."
Said Romulus, "We found our ancient honor
by grace of the stars."
Said Remus, "The past is dead.
Let it be forgotten. Consider the future."
Said Romulus, "Here we'll put the circus,
and here our house, open to everyone."
Said Remus, "But the tombs, the tombs
must be nearer the house."
