Let's be Amazonian women, on second thought we'd probably hate that

I really wish I had my phone so I could hear about your good day at work and we could talk about genes

Here's a story for you: I saw a crush of mine on the street while I was picking up the remainder of a cake that I made for a party at Boxcar yesterday (it was a small weird chocolate vegan cake in a loaf pan and about half of it was left, kind of lonely and dumb since it was my first effort at vegan baking).  Anyway, this is the crush who probably thinks I'm stalking him since we frequently see each around campus and we've exchanged glances over the newspaper and coffee and I happened to spot him as I drive past, with a cute girl, both of them laughing and smiling. M****a, I'm telling you, after my double-take I had this excruciating moment of horrified shock and the subsequent reaction: complete self-loathing and utter embarrassment, that I am an idiot to have a crush on this guy and when am I ever going to grow up and why didn't I make a move on him when he was flirting with me that one time because now he is laughing uproariously about something with this very cute girl who has really pretty shiny wavy brown hair.

Then I stuffed the entire cake in my mouth while driving in the space of about three blocks.  It was pretty good actually.

Dearest ones,

About this matter of cohabitation, one might call it; I know it is hard for you to accept the idea of gents and ladies all under one roof but practically in terms of expense it is not possible for me to live alone.  The only way you can beat the rent racket is to get a large place and share it and I couldn't stand living with four or five girls, dormitory fashion, stockings drying all over the place.

Shamrock Cafe


Last night I thought I'd stop
at the Shamrock cafe, behind the shop.

It was dead quiet, only me,
my serviette and my cup of tea,

and I was looking at buying one
of the prints on the walls of Neanderthal Man

when I heard this tremulous moaning, just
what a gale beginning or a gust

of a hurricane would make at sea.
I threw an anxious glance at my tea.

There to my horror, was a small
row-boat sinking in a whorl,

and round about the rim a foam
of tea waves crashing in the gloom,

which I drank.  All unawares,
a fat girl came to the foot of the stairs

and stood there, with one hand
on the banister, swinging around.

I AM A BRIDE


little tree
little silent Christmas tree...
who found you in the green forest
and were you sorry to come away?

Dear X,
I miss you.

As of late I have been:

Party party college-style, much more than I'm used to with lots of drinking and smoking (usually stumbling also ensues)

Writing, but most of it goes into letters early in the morning out on my porch or late in the evening into poems nestled on my couch and I smoking out the window

Goodbye Puss

New Bloomington frontiers including: sib love, huzz love, new friend love, neighbor love and love love all around

Today I have a cold that makes me feel miserable and sleepy, even though it's boiling in the house and I am such a nudist it's embarrassing

Everyone tells me that I should enjoy it while I can? (Bloomington, not nudism)

PS all are drunk in this town, I think, including me
