<span style="color: #000099;">In all cultures, in every language,<br />The most frequent lie is,<br />"I am fine."<br />How are you today, Truly?<br />Naked and from the inside-out,<br />Without pride or accountability.<br />Pretend the God of your Understanding<br />Is asking.<br />The answer may surprise you.<br />The answer may overwhelm you.<br />The answer may change everything.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Out of the fog and into the glitter.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Old photographs? </span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Lost in translation!</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Crosswinds strip city signs</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">From the street of cluttered minds.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Kind word on an endless day</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Spreading the dark secret</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">All under town.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Nightkitchen, I catch you</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">In your pink snakeskin gown</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Brown sugared pears and hot chocolate.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">You never left. I reach out</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Wondering not if it's you or your ghost. </span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Whatever happened there</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Returned you to the sea,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">In my reach, if not my grasp.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Venus is set to sun-cross,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">A once-in-a-lifetime event,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Like every time</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">You unhook your pearls,<br />Slip into grapefruit-scented sheets</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">The color of the sea</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">In a blind man's dream.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Brittle star</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Beyond the fuller moon,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Weepless willows wait.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Questions fall into the wishless well.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Flash of communion flickers</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Peppered with circumstance</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Parallel, not convergent</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">With our dark desires,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Synapses of hard wiring</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Sparking, sputtering,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Catching quiet fire. </span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">When the light is perfectly wrong</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Casting improbable shadows</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">I remind myself</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">I am only cheating on you</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">With my identity. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Goddess, you twitch in your sleep.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">I worry you are running away.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Why are you so fixed on the apocalypse?</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">If it comes in December I will be so pissed</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">That I didn't quit the band </span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">To follow you</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Into worlds I will never understand.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">The dog wrecked the car again.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">The sky fell into my cup, so I drank.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Please come quickly.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">I can only hold up so many stars.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Until your plane arrives</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Everything</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Is wrong with this picture.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Everything is right forever tonight.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #000099;">If I thought the apocalypse was coming</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Already, I would have</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Kidnapped Brad Pitt</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">And have him</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Tied up in a nicely decorated dungeon</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Performing lewd acts on me,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Fingerprint bruises on his neck,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Claw marks on my leather.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">I kind of want to convince you</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">The world is ending</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">And put on a famous person mask.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">What should I wear?</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Kidnapping you would be</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">No fun</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">If you were dressed up and ready.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Put up a slight fight</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Or I'll get bored.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">How would you dress for abduction?</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">I would wear, you know</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Nothing complicated, the pretense of</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Protest. You'd discover my</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Obedience. </span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">What will you wear?</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">You speak almost as you have forgotten</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">You are the prisoner here.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">But I would wear lace with your tooth prints,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">A smile from your treacherous future.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">It is my privilege to service You<br />In any way you see fit.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">NOW THAT'S HOW TO TALK TO A DOMINATRIX!</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Goddess, what the hell?</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">You are seriously breaking my concentration,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">You little Poetry Tart,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Which is worse than some stranger's mouth on you,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">But it isn't a stranger.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Something familiar is here.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">I am going to write a song</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">That makes you look legally insane</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">And sing it every night,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">In front of girls MUCH younger than you.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">But you are still coming to the show on Friday,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Right?</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">You are more twisted than ever I could be.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">You deserve me.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">My fingers tap the Go-bag,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Bullet-proof vest is cumbersome </span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Through radioactive branches, and what good</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Are my terrestrial tools</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Of covert operation?</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Earthling,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Forgive my glacial decision.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">I know you appreciate the irony</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">From one who has outfoxed</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">The speed of light.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Do you have any idea, Goddess</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">What torture my silence has been?</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">How I shook, how my muscles tore</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Cutting loose the rope</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">That brought you in?</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Here you climb on our shared love of rhyme. </span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">I am broken with joy to see you,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">But don't f***ing ever do it again.</span><br />
<br />

<span style="color: #000099;">The lions have come to the yard for fireworks. </span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">One is running wild with the hose.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Who gave them Walmart champagne?</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Where's the dog? Where's the dog? Where's the dog?</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">I missed so many things about you,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Even things you won't do</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Like wear girl shoes.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">I missed how you don't pick up your cell phone</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Just because you're listening to me</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Ramble on without a point</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">And I know how crazy it drives you,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">I've got so many extra words</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">That don't even make a puzzle.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">But I feel your phone vibrate</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">And you don't even check to see</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">If it's God or the Devil,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">You are the show I want to be the star of,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">I know my words are never right</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">And yours always are.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Rolled out of my tent for coffee, </span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Saw my demented wife</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Feeding cigarettes to an elephant,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Ran to stop her.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">"Don't you know you're feeding</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Poison to an innocent creature?"</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">"You weren't worried I would get trampled?"</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">"You're not an innocent creature."</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">What kind of maniac</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Paints with toothpaste, matches,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Dental floss, strawberries and glitter?</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Got to love her,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Useless trying to make sense of her.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Also, it makes her cranky, so I'm like,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">"Why didn't somebody think of that?"</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">"This isn't messy at all and I'm sure if you spray</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Some more of that Godawful preservitant on it,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">The smell will go away.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">But even the stink is kind of minty.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Scary and loud and can't talk without her hands on her hips,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Got to love her.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Don't tell me you have not seen it</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">As the Island sun is setting,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">The green spark,</span><br />
<span style="color: #000099;">Someone changing channels between shows. </span></div>

<span style="color: blue;">If we lived in the same universe</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">You would already be sick of me.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">I'm quirky and selfish and wild</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">And no human is more important to me</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Than poetry.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">No man in his right mind</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Would stand in the line</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Of books, painting,</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Poems scrawled on grocery receipts,</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Conspiracy theories,</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">The mysterious species of flowers</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Teeming in my yard,</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Gradient cobalt to pink,</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Red-black marbled centers</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">That resemble a face.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">And Mars!</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">All planets! Add to that</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Worlds uncharted.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Remain on your planet.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">I will stay on mine.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">The bizarre crossing we had in the desert</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Was a hiccup of time. </span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Let's keep the distance deep and dark,</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Thick and treacherously impenetrable,</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Delicious, Deviant, Divine.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue;">Whenever words come from you</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">I imagine</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">The possibilities. No one said I had to be</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Remotely important.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">I respect my place in the hierarchy of your plants</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">And receipts. It's O.K.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">With me if you forget my name. So let's keep our</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Worlds. (I'm putting up a sign with my name on it.)</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">But here's to the possibility</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Of a future defiance, a rare geographical</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Co-mingling.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">It will be so dark electric lights</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Will hide behind their mothers.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Our poetry will always come first.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Yours will taste a little like my laugh,</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Mine, like your fiery little mouth.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">One two-way shooting, one three-way,</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Bodies found in woods,</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Home invasion involving children,</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Tiger found in women's restroom,</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">All in one weekend.</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Ah, this town of trouble</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">Between my island home</span><br />
<span style="color: blue;">And my someday planet.</span><br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
</span></span></span>I am responding to Douglas' comments at the end of my post, "The Crap Job Interview". First of all, this comment has NOTHING to do with the post. But, since it has been brought up, no, I am not a celebrity cougar. I am not denying the photos, but I live on a resort in Destin, Florida. Celebrities vacation here all the time and you're bound to run into them. It was in our mutual best interest to have those photos removed. Regarding the youtube video, yes, I have seen the one in question, but it is not me. John Mayer is an amazing artist. Enough said.<br />
<br />
P.S. The term "celebrity cougar" implies the cougar is the celebrity. You should have accused me of being a "groupie cougar". I am innocent on both charges.<br />

<span style="color: #330099; font-family: trebuchet ms;">Dear Rebecca Lu,</span><br />
<span style="color: #330099; font-family: Trebuchet MS;">By complete accident, I had sex on the second date with a handsome guy who seemed wonderful. (It was Easter.) It turns out, he has erection problems and is very depressed. I was trying to...I am not sure how graphic I can be here...trying to get him to full throttle, and believe me I worked and worked and tried things I never imagined myself trying, especially on a second date. He started talking about his ex-wife and crying right there in bed. I stopped for a second because my jaw was clicking, and the crying was starting to unnerve me. I tried to make light of the situation so he wouldn't be too embarassed. I said, "Can't a girl just ____ a ____?" He said that was offensive and he would take me home. What the hell can I do now?</span><br />
<span style="color: #330099; font-family: Trebuchet MS;">Melissa</span><br />
<span style="color: #330099; font-family: Trebuchet MS;">San Antonio, Texas</span><br />
<span style="color: #330099; font-family: webdings;">..........</span><br />
<span style="color: #330099; font-family: webdings;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #330099; font-family: trebuchet ms;">Dear Melissa,</span><br />
<span style="color: #330099; font-family: Trebuchet MS;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #330099; font-family: Trebuchet MS;">Sex by accident? What the hell? Did he slip on a marshmallow Peeps chicken while you were hunting for eggs? What you can do is not have sex with people you don't know, and especially people who don't appreciate your sense of humor. Yes, sweet Melissa, a girl can just ____ a ____ and most men are perfectly delighted with any and all efforts. And see a dentist about the jaw clicking thing, probably TMJ, if not TMI.</span><br />
<span style="color: #330099; font-family: Trebuchet MS;">Regards,</span><br />

I have been searching for a job to no avail. The employment office has been no help at all and I am sick and tired of job "opportunities" that try to get you to invest money or just hire everybody who walks in to work straight commission with no benefits or guarantees or even gas money for the door-to-door crap.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS;color:#330099;">I did my hair and makeup and wore my lucky suit for yet another crap job interview the other day. When they told me it was fifty hours a week and straight commission, and that I should make a list of everybody I know, (This was their free lead generating system), I just stood up and said "goodbye". What's a non-working girl to do??</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS;color:#330099;">Sharry</span><br /><span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS;color:#330099;">Detroit Michigan</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;color:#330099;">..........</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#330099;">Dear Sharry in Detroit,</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS;color:#330099;">Next time you find yourself at a crap job interview, I suggest you politely say, "Please excuse me one moment." Tell them you have to make an emergency phone call and ask for a free beverage while they wait. Grab your cell phone and call the police. Say, "Hello, I would like to report a white slavery operation." Give the address and wait for the sirens. Spit on a tissue and mess up your makeup. Spit on your hands and rake your hair toward your face as though you have been rolling on the ground. Rip your blouse and make sure your bra is showing. When the cops arrive, say, "I don't want to have sex with strangers and barnyard animals!" </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS;color:#330099;">I also suggest you stop looking for a job in normal ways. The internet and classifieds just aren't working these days. Drive around town and find a pretty building, a big one with lots of offices and corporate chaos. Show up at the front desk, give your name and tell them you are reporting for your first day of work in sales. When they express confusion, say the message was left on your machine and you didn't get the name. They will look for a resume or job application. Of course, they won't find one. Tell them you will be happy to fill out your new hire paperwork and bring your resume (again) tomorrow. Congratulations on inventing your new job!</span><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;color:#330099;">..........</span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#330099;">LEGAL NOTE- This web site is chiefly for entertainment purposes. Never, ever lie to the police, but I bet if you show up for a nonexistant job 20 times, you will get one job out of it, and one job is all you need. Stranger things have happened. Creativity breeds paychecks.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS;color:#330099;">-Rebecca Lu Kiernan</span><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;color:#330099;">..........</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com4
