Live Nudes

The term Live Nudes confuses me. Do Xombie Nudes actually exist? Can’t one enjoy also Dead Nudes?
I’ve never seen a neon sign for Artistic Nudes, which is a shame; I’d definitely stop to see that.
Did you know the first Olympic Games were done in the nude? I wonder if the Greeks put Live Nude signs outside of their arenas and coliseums?
Mayhaps we should compromise and display signs for Live & Fully Clothed at, say, coffee houses, warehouse clubs and sporting events, to give context to the term Live Nudes. Just to be clear.

I love to swim in the nude and roam around the house in the nude. You’re just as free as a bird!
Quotation from Bettie Page

Full nakedness! All my joys are due to thee,
As souls unbodied, bodies unclothed must be,
To taste whole joys.
Poem by John Donne, To His Mistress Going to Bed

Fowl Language

I had an embarrassment today. I was singing along to the Huff This! version of the Violent Femmes song Blister in the Sun when I pulled into my parking space at work. I was still singing when I turned my car off and opened the door. “I just want to feel you scream so fuuuck me.” Of course, that was the exact moment two construction workers walked by. Fuuuuck me! My face was bright red as I speed-walked the rest of the way to work.

Music is well said to be the speech of angels.
Quotation from Thomas Carlyle

The Courtship Ceremony

The Courtship Ceremony

Face it: Wooing is out, Woo Woo is in. Courtship in America ended somewhere between the time the television shows The Brady Bunch and The Love Boat were cancelled.

One good idea would be to invite the Pisces lady to your home to show her your aquarium. You should start your seduction process when she is engrossed in seeing fishes in your aquarium. Give her a kiss on the shoulders and this will automatically lead her to your bedroom.
Quotation from “Seduction by Sun Signs” (TheSecretsofSeduction.com)

A tall well-built woman with good
reputation, who can cook frogs
legs, who appreciates a good fuc-
schia garden, classical music and tal-
king without getting too serious.
But please only read lines 1, 3 and 5.
Quotation from a Personal Ad (DateHookup.com)

The cost of hiding is the value of the alternative

The cost of hiding is the value of the alternative

apropos of nothing: off the lobby is a sauna
with a crack and my face pressed to it.
the front desk girl is putting drops in the eyes of another guest.
the sauna’s yellow light is burning my shoulder
and i should slip into the courtesy robe, and close my pores.
the bed is already turned down in my room.
but a lady carrying a dog puts down an empty wine glass
and i’m sure her dog is looking at me and licking its nose.
poem i wrote, on my birthday

Hiccups Have No Useful Function

Hiccups Have No Useful Function

It’s only a few days until my trip to Costa Rica. I’ve drilled into my mind what I need to pack, but I still forget things whenever I travel. Yes, I’m taking several packets of sugar with me. I’m going to drink lots of wine and look at birds. I hope I remember to hiccup in Spanish. Hipo!

I think hiccup cures were really invented for the amusement of the patient’s friends.

Crow Flocks While Others Gaggle

Crow Flocks While Others Gaggle

One of my favorite online artists is Susan at Phantsythat.
She makes wonderful drawings and often pairs little stories with them.

Dance children, dance to the beat
Wanna be a hippy cause life is so sweet…
Love is a good thing
Love is a good, love is a good,
Love is a good thing.
Lyrics from Sheryl Crow, Love is a Good Thing

Step out the front door like a ghost
Into the fog where no one notices
The contrast of white on white.
And in between the moon and you
The angels get a better view
Of the crumbling difference between wrong and right.
Lyrics by Counting Crows, Round Here

p.s. I’m away for a few days.
