Poetry Monday

What I Wear

I want to wear a pair of low rise bad ass,
with a cute red sex kitten tank
Dont take no bull boots, polished to a shine
And a smile called I like to be spanked.
But all I have in my closet are hand me downs
Clumsy clothed apologies.
Though inside I sparkle with rage and renown
Outside I'm a buttoned up whisper of, "please."
For him in our room I can slip on some sexy
But when he is gone for the day
Its comfort food sweats and dont look at me tees
Think its time to throw those rags away.

I need to go shopping. :)

I'm Back!

I'm over at The Novelty Girls today-still a bit foggy-still recovering. It was wonderful seeing everyone and I miss them already-but I must admit slipping my fuzzy socks back on and snuggling into my sweatpants felt gooood. Anyway, come over and say hi.

Poetry Train/So Long For Now

In several hours I'll pack my car
I'll drive away, not too too far
A four hour ride,a weeklong trip
I've never been, I dont know zip
Will it be crazy, busy, fun?
Will I pitch to someone ere its done?
My brows are plucked, my hair is dyed
I bought some Spanx {my hips are wide}
I'm meeting friends both old and new
Thats what I'm looking forward to
I wonder how this week will go?
When I come back, I'll let you know.:)

13 Happy RWA CON Thoughts

Poetry Monday

I was just having fun with this song when I wrote it years ago. Things you ponder when studying Mythology lol.


Creation Question

Do you think we’re all ants on a rock in space
Slowly floatin’ through infinity?
Marching off to our jobs in one mindless mob,
Goin’ nowhere for eternity.
Well we think we’re a superpower
Superman
Supermodel
Just because we don’t have tails.
But could it be we were made of clay-
yesterday
Standing on the back of a turtle,
Sleepin’ in the belly of a whale.

Do you think we evolved from a simian race,
Or did it all start in the sea?
Now that the Big Bangs all the craze we wonder if God’s 7 days, Are the same as days to you and me.
Do you think we were sent from Mars
Came in jars
From the stars
In a test they knew would fail?
Or could it be we were made of clay
yesterday
Standing on the back of a turtle
Sleeping in the belly of a whale.

Bridge: Well we’re all spirits, and we’re all souls
Yes that’s what I believe in, that’s what I’ve been told
Where did we come from, oh nobody truly can say
Where are we headed? Well that’s the question of the day

Do you think we were gods who just lost our way
And got caught up in this groove?
Do you think that we came from the Pleiades
And if we did why’d we have to move?
Do you think it’s a lottery
Pick A or B
And then you’ll see
With the right wind it could sail?
Or could it be we were made of clay-
yesterday
Standing on the back of a turtle
Sleepin’ in the belly of a whale
