Never have I drawn or painted
though I regard my body as my instrument
With it and voice expressionism I create
...

Some people enter the world
to indigo skies,
the sun beams
on their blessed souls
...

He
ya know
my frog
not quite a prince
...

Me the Feminine
Gents rushing to open doors
Lipstick on my coffee cup
View diamond shod ear in the rear view mirror
...

Tired of words

Do Not Kip Tonight
While you sleep
I write
In the relative quiet of the night
...

Fidelity and virginity are twins
Once taken they cannot return
Careful consideration should be taken
before fidelity is spurn
...

Can I be a phenomenal woman
as Maya Angelo's poem boasts?
Can I step into those shoes,
even the littlest of her toes
...

Talk dirty to me because
ya know even though
I am not supposed to
I like that
...

female sexual dysfunction
this is a 'malady' where a lady
can get one at any point of the day
without a sexual thought, it comes

I need to lay in your arms in our big lovely bed
1000 thread count of supple crimson comfort
resting, playing, watching, talking, staying in together
I feel safe to be wrapped in your sexual agape love
...

I’m not a poet
I just mess with words
I like to get them to be punny or outrageously absurd
Often they are simple, plain superlative
...

So your the smart type
bookish in every right.
In science they created a letter
before A to give you a grade.

Uncle:
Well they kissed its official
they preacher pronouce it done
He has a tiger by the tail

Tiny
She Breathed
for only a while
every breath like vaporours rubies

My Joy You Cannot Squish
I am a joyful being, some say I have too much of it
I love a smile, a joke, a gag, smirk of irony,
the ache of a well laughed tummy
...

click of heals
Curve of skirt
Toss of hair
Sway of girth
...

I am a lady, sir!

Who the hell do you think you are?
I am a woman of good repute,
...

I married into knowing
the most adorable man
I would ever meet.
My husbands father.

$175 an hour to rant
All I get is “how do you feel about that? ”
I think I just spent a 175
telling you how I feel
