With the 100th anniversary of the publication of "The Great Gatsby" exercising the synapses with a rereading, it was originally read in school many years ago, and finding unintentional sherku in Fitzgerald's writing. Unintentional simply because I was not anywhere near him at that time, nor had the sherku idea occurred to me so I could share it and he could write accordingly.

One of thoserare smiles,the whole worldfor an instant,at that pointit vanished
Slow-thinkingand full ofinteriorrules, that actas brakes onmy desires
Thanks to CB for the idea to revisit Gatsby
