We made the most of every second
What a lovely pampered feeling

A rented home away from home
Every detail perfectly delightful
For three short days of bliss
Setting high the bar
For what fun should be

First trip on my own
Two girls out in a red convertible
Cruising down from Canada to Ogunquit
Near Boston on the New England coast
Freedom the sun the ocean air

The wind combing through our hair
Mornings spent in quaint local tourist shops
Afternoons spent tanning on beach towels
Nights dolled up hitting a dance club
High heels and mini skirts

A few photos and lots of laughs
A fun memorable trip for two single girls

Premium Member The Way I Remember It

A funny thing happened
on the way to my wedding
the white limo picked me up as scheduled
along with sister and mom all dolled up

My sister found a stash of the cutest
mini bottles of champagne
and we had to give them a try
so told the chauffeur 
to take the scenic route

We were warm and giggly
till the supply finally ran out
we ended up being a little late but
I knew my promised one would understand

It never occurred to me that
with each passing minute
he might think I would leave him
hanging at the altar
and simply not show up

Of course I’m kidding 
we drank that champagne fast enough
that we weren’t late at all

Over the holidays, I was watching Lisa’s sister little Leeza, she’s 14.
She has a rebellious fashion sense and a joyful innocence.
She’s still fearless too, and on-God, I hope she never loses that.

Too soon though—the disco’s coming to town—the world’s coming for her. It’s the same for all of us, I suppose, but in Lisa and my cases, covid shut it all down.

It’s a rite of passage—the shoes, the bodycon dresses and the makeup. Those carry negative connotations, I get it, but there’s an excitement too, about finally getting to dress like an adult—a woman—in one of those bodycon, cut-out dresses.

I know the pressures on women and their bodies, but at her age, it's not all stress, cattiness and comparisons—it’s just innocent teen fun. She and her posse can take hours just dressing and doing their make-up—together. It’s probably the best part of their night.

Leeza’s dad (Michael) saw the little group of teens, all dolled-up and launched, like a SpaceX Starship. Pacing the living room, he quietly opined to Karen (her mom), “I don’t want her going out dressed like that.”

Karen was right there with him to cool things down, “No, hun, at her age, it’s about self-expression, learning and girl bonding—these connections are really important in the girl-world.”

I’m not worried about Leeza’s physical safety. These girls are watched over and gently curated. Their every movement is orchestrated and security escorted—hell, Hamas couldn’t get to them—much less some gropey boy.

There’s just this new awareness these days of how unhappy some people are—and a lot of them are teen girls. I wouldn’t want to see Leeza mired in the sad, brain-draining social media pressure and self-esteem traps.
Teenhood is scary—I was feelin’ positively parental.

Then I looked at Lisa, and I was reminded that they’ve done all this before, and she has a big-sister, role-model too.

I became pregnant the summer of 2024
I had my eightth son, born
Valentines Day 2025 in  Correzz
France. I became pregant one night at
a Music semenarier.
Ten of us partied at the Twig Retreat
in Spain. One song was 2/3 melody.
TThe other was 3/4 harmony.
They deleted the dialog and
fused the grooves. The Circle of
Fifth, "Bangers and Grindin!"
Eglise aint nothing on us!
Jesus is Jesus in Spanish.
So I wanna name him
O'Dey.

Dolled up in Powda Bleu rhinestone
she wore ah skirt to appease
her Paw.
He was angry cause she refused
to wear a bra.
He heard the Fella
talking about what they saw.
She grabbed her Tres Cubano and swung it at
until the room cleared.

She auditioned for the role of the guy who makes the burlap bags in the village.
She was casted as his wife.

The Easter Miracle

All dolled up in her Easter dress
She sat quietly watching through the glass
Children with baskets searching around
For the eggs i’d hidden in the grass

Her spirit soared among the clouds
Her smile as bright as her eyes
She lived each day for the moment
Scoffing the reality that underlies

It was shortly after her third birthday
When the devastating news came in
Plagued with a rare form of cancer
Faced with a battle she wouldn’t win

The doctors uncertain of her remaining time
So her quality of life was our goal
Family and friends said nightly prayers
Asking God to watch over her soul

Treatment commenced, but to no avail
My little Glass Princess was slipping away
I wasn’t ready to say good-bye
Not now, tomorrow or any day

I placed my head upon her chest
And held her body tight
I felt a presence and opened my eyes
To a most incredible sight

A bearded man in Holy cloth
Standing beside her bed
He said he’d come another time
Then gently kissed her head

I knew I had witnessed a miracle
I asked the doctor to check her condition
He said “ I have no explanation”
Her cancer has gone into remission

Nineteen years ago she defeated the odds
 And this Easter she’ll wear a wedding dress
I have never questioned what happened that day
When Jesus kissed my little Glass Princess

Premium Member If I Have the Time and Inclination

If I have the time I’ll cook your beef,
Clean your kitchen, fix you a pie.
Sit and listen, sigh and cry.
Be your best friend, to both our relief.

If I have the inclination I’ll be there.
To mend your argyle socks and sweep your floor.
Things will be lovelier than ever before.
We’ll be married this time, and you will care

If I have the money, I’ll travel by plane
All dolled up, I’ll surprise you with my pretty
Well laugh and smile and be insanely witty
What am I saying? I’m being inane

You were the one who left me, Mr. Wow.
Broke my heart, shamed me incredibly sadly. 
Without any guilt, made me feel badly. 
I’ll not be back, ever, I’m smarter now.

We sang  a rendition of
the Lovers fight song
where two lovers
asked the world what
they were doing wrong
her cursings tongue spoke
until all her frustration
was gone

She soothed me
She calmed me till
I couldn't ignore
her want for me
her need for me
to hard to miss
something
one couldn't ignore

Make time for Love
that's what Lovers do
When it's really love
it comes natural too
Get all handsomed up
She'll get dolled up too
Night on the town
Baby that's what
Lovers do

She has ah man home
he don't wanna let her go
My woman just tag's along
if she really Loves me
is someting I don't know
Depending on
her point of view
when she turns me off
I go to spend time with you

Pointless to resend
ah man you can't reach
only ah foolish man
takes sand to the beach
tryna prevent him
 from sneaking a hround
you'll make ah fool of yourself
in front of the damn whole town

This Ghoul Dolled Up

Whether the weather 
necessitates to anchor 
     myself as a tether
when the frankenstorm 
     socks the east coast 
     shredding terrestrial 
     zone like soft leather
i may end up attired 

     in esprit de corpse 
     being tossed hither and yon 
     to and fro like a feather.
If...the forecast imbues  
     meteorologists flooded with folly
making a mockery 
     of humanity run amuck 
     in panic mode - by golly

this mortal male will don himself as 
     "the chief garbage" taster 
     with a garland of holly
shuffling along the 
     boulevard of broken 
     tin cans and rubbish 
     feigning to be melancholy.
This getup a throw
 
     back to a costume  
     adorned this papa when 
     he attended grade school
eons ago, where corporal punishment 
     prevailed in case  
     student disavowed any rule
such as smoking in the boys' room  
     cigarette such
 
     manufactured by Kent or kool
or lambasting any unlikable teacher, 
     (whose bookish face) at 
     receiving end of 
     pranks rather cruel.
So...presume that Halloween 
     will take place without any axe
of nature to grind monster
 
     brewing at sea
and picture this poet decked 
     out dumpster diving 
     for the most fetid trash 
     and materiel with cracks
to be affixed upon 
     a heavy duty sack 
     with goop from
 
     sullied foodstuffs - 
     a cause for glee
rotten meat infested 
     with maggots, shards of glass, 
     crushed metal cans, 
     et cetera to the max
will be haphazardly splayed 
     (Jackson Pollack like)
 
     on this sturdy cloth 
     that will drape me
spurring a conga like of hungry beasts 
     ready go pounce – menacing 
     ferocious wolf packs
adding to the welter per helter skelter 
     of decayed detritus distributed 
     from head to knee

and a set of punishing 
     pronged antlers spiking out 
     in all directions upon 
     ma noggin-hence to tax
utmost fear in passersby, and quite 
     an abominable sight to see.

1999

It was 1999
Shotgun rider
2000 green mustang
My sis, always beside her

Landed the same job
Only Mexican restaurant in town
Put gas in our car
Kept our wheels going round

All dolled up
Kissed our parents goodnight
Pretend to go to bed
Cruising feeling right

Idiots with wheels
License to drive
Dr. Pepper and cigarettes 
Never felt so alive

Introduced to Mary Jane
She was a silly lady
Laying on the hood of our car
Listening to Slim Shady

Hungry for boys
Just a tease
Looking fly in our prime
The birds and the bees

The dawning of 2000
Life as we knew it, about to end
Eyes met at 12:01
We both began to grin

Cheers to a good year
Twice as old as I was then
Thinking of my sis today 
Missing my best friend

Tears - I Started a Joke

Today is the day she will finally be married the man of her dreams
They had met two months earlier and he's fallen deeply in love with her, and asked her to marry him
He couldn't wait to spend the rest of his life with her
And being who he is she agreed to marry him

So glowing with joy, she's feeling so wonderful
and can't wait to see her man at the altar

Even though her family was against it 
-that it's too soon to get married 
-that she hardly knew him 
But of course she knows he's the one
He's perfectly fit and rich 
And one day she will come to love him like 
she once did her high school sweetheart 
Except he got fat and she had to leave him
- A fat man can't work and is just unattractive 
In fact she doesn't even think of him anymore
it's been two years since she dated him
Her future husband is perfectly fit, handsome and so very rich
Just her kind of man...

Clearing her head she dolled up 
Slipped into her Cinderella dress and rushed out the hotel door with her only friend 
She doesn't care that her family didn't come
She's never going to forgive them 
She'll be very rich soon, so she really doesn't care 

Smiling and giggling
She turned to her friend and said hurry open the door
Only to step into an empty dim chapel
With a big banner hanging saying

...I'm sorry you couldn't love me because I was fat and my wallet was thin!

Tears...
