as the opposite of cold hegemony.

“When life brings you lemons,
Make lemonade
 or add the lemons to,
Your sugary sweet Kool-Aid.”

Are miserable creatures,
Who want to alter,
Your beautiful features.
Motivation is the...

Connie, Denise, and Cochise
Amid 240 units of toil
Reigns my Connie
Where she walks
Is blessed soil

California sun
To match her hair,
No nature's beauty
Could compare

Sitting at a table,
With her friend Denise,
Mulling over a
Possible lease...
To an Indian
named Cochise...

Will he pay in wampum
Or scalps...
