Daily Haiku VI

Cripes what weird weather
drivin’ round, windows open,
it’s almost New Years!

Daily Haiku V

Goddamn you cheet-os
genetically modified
orange puffed devil

This is an attempt to reconstruct one I threw on a message board but didn’t write down a couple years ago.

Daily haiku IV

Freakin’, crazy cats
You just had big surgery
those drugs must be good

Daily haiku III

That bee is busy
even in the summer storm
milking purple bells

Giddy

Daily Haiku II

Inspired By “Pillowbook”

Last night’s dream it lied
What I saw lied like the truth
I wake inside dreams

Kits with red

Uncle Bunny XMAS with lei

Pete, Hi, Pete

Sweet Sibs

Daily haiku I

Shimmering bluebird
wings fan burning Helios
Igniting the dawn

Now published, so I can post them.

Dead Puppy Love

Shoe
gum wrapper stuck
It flutters as we walk
don’t walk away

Here
the yard is paved in wood
I’ll take you from the fold
take you away


I first saw you on a swing set
Your dress lifted on your long legs
Your smile flew out like a banner
caught in a web of memory


Frayed
in places like my heart
this photograph of you
you went away

So long
it’s been since I held you
you’re burned into my flesh
I’ve never been the same

Four lines for Allen G.

Shuffling to the coffeepot
tapped out at evenings end
your Dharma your harmonium
your memories, your friends

You know...

That one song, They Might Be Giants, lalala, will make you go insane, ba dum ba dum, lalala, from Factory Showroom? You know?

Interesting

I woke up listening and - nothing. Not one little scrap of music playing. The radio was just turned off. Unusual. However I was immediately thinking hard about Zingerman’s chocolate cherry bread.
And yesterday’s am earworm was “Janie’s Got a Gun” - Aerosmith. Not my favourite Aerosmith by a long shot, I’m a definite “Get Your Wings” kind of girl.
Sometimes the head radio reminds me too much of Doug FM or WCSX . My feeling being that if I can’t bear to listen to those in real life why would I want that playing incessantly in my head?

Yah as if...

$10,000 XMAS list Homework for ASL class

Assignment: write and be prepared to discuss what we would buy ourselves and only ourselves if we had 10,000 extra dollars this holiday.

• An external hard drive so we can do A LOT more digitizing, say like my entire album collection.

• Office supply store credit/gift card. We go through CDs, cases, printer ink and photographic paper like crazy making our own demos.

• Four to six matching morris chairs in red, black or pine green or a combination of the three for the living room. With little matching rectangular tables to go in between.

• A real, custom built altar that just exactly fits the altar space.

• A temperpedic mattress

• 7 nice bras and all new underwear

• Pay off the car loan

• Another laptop

• All the Eels cds. I have none and the more I hear them the more I like them. As well as any leftover money would just go to other cds.

For me, because I gave up on the idea of a big Daddy God or government like a thousand years ago and yet still feel like I need some help and support, here’s what utilizing Buddhism feels like.

You go to “Buddha” and you’re like “hey, I and most of my toys, am kinda broken. I need to do something about that.” Buddha was/is all like “ Yeah dig that, here’s my toolbox have a bang at it and if you need some DIY books there’s some of those too. Try not to borrow stuff for too many millennia though cuz there’s another hundred trillion beings that need to use them as well so it would be really cool if you spent some time figuring out how to build and fill a toolbox yourself, but whatever. Oh yeah, and word to the wise, you’ll probably get more work done if you clean as you go”.

Here’s a recipe we like:
(1) Start with a good going over with Rachel Perry Perfectly Clear Herbal Antiseptic.

(2) Apply pore strips (according to directions)

(3) Make a good masque. Mine was Rachel Perry Clay & Ginseng mixed with some kind of Mexican clay. All the way up to and including my ear stretches.

(4) Somewhere in this process decide to throw on a couple tubes of hot oil into hair.

(5) Throw a few tablespoons of Swiss Kriss in a steel pot of with a couple inches of boiling, filtered water. Steam head under towels till sweating profusely (and if you’re like me drooling just a little).

(6) Get a big, good lighted mirror, tweeze everything annoying and gently remove white and blackheads that are vulnerable for the first time in ages.

(7) Apply another pore strip or two for good measure while everything is steamed and loosened.

(8) Take a nice shower with a sisal glove and Kiss My Face Olive Oil soap sloughing.
Wash out oil with Pure Shampoo and Pure Rosemary/Mint conditioner. Pumice and alladat.

(9) Apply Rachel Perry Violet Rose Toner and Nutrimin Reversing Gelee transforming lift for eyes.

(10) Trim hair

(11) Finish face with Rachel Perry Calendula - Cucumber oil free moisturizer with echinacea.
Cover rest of self with Aloe 80 Lotion.

(12) Put on your all clean, all best, underwear.

(13) Pick out very cute outfit.

(14) Polish boots

(15) Feel pretty damn good.

I may be pretty masculine but I am a pretty good metrosexual as well.

Fug it

I think I’ll give my self a serious facial as well or quite possibly instead.

Any day now

I’m really supposed to be doing homework. Wonder if that is really going to happen? I suppose as I kinda want to go to Swank’o’Rama tonight I probably should.

I need to get out a little, this for me is the first of the horrordays festives. This one is not so much about the season as much as about my friend who owns several businesses doin’ a little do for a combination of friends and clients.

Some of her clients are classic examples of the neauveau riche, I have come close to drink, face, throwing, activities at these things previously due to their outrageously gauche and idiotic snobbery. But even that is entertaining in it’s own fashion.
I could probably have some fun with a little class war drama. And considering the shit I’ve been seeing my working class friends dealing with the past couple years, throwing a drink or two and possibly indulging in some light fisticuffs with some republicans might be cathartic.
I wish Nitro and Eva Destruction were going though. It would be nice to have a few buds around. I already know you guys aren’t coming. I’m just psychic that way.

All right off to compare and contrast various poems and poets against other ones and write “breaking down an essays arguments in the critical thinking vein” papers and read South American mythology and read “The Rose Tattoo” and continue my Ginsberg project and on and on and on.

When semester break comes I get 20 days off with no freakin’ homework. Any day now.
