  • New Guy, Same Story.

    The new one says casually I like you. I say, I like you, too. We continue driving barely touching fingers. That new one with his easy smile that I sense is not so easy. The new one who will never win my complete adoration Typical manspeak he meant it as a compliment It wasn’t. He…

  • Crumbs in my Cleavage

    There are crumbs in my cleavage cracker flakes in my bra I don’t mind I look down, acknowledge them shrug my shoulders It is in my capacity to eat crumblessly and to rid my underthings of existing crumbs It is not, however, in my nature to bother with such since my being is a mere…

  • Just because.

    This Medicated Lady is thinking irrationally again. Irrational because. I’ve been considering a diet consisting only of those flavored ice pops especially the blue ones the ones I like the least Irrational because. No one but me looks forward to a psychotic break Irrational because. It occurred to me that I’m tired of being medicated…

  • Soft: A Diagnosis

    Too available My diagnosis My judgment And then I saw him looking trendy and sweet ordering a burrito with guacamole and cheese. There was no air conditioning so we sweated it out while we relaxed in each other’s company. His hair looked soft as did his hands. And as it turned out soft is what…

  • Say

    My ex-boyfriend asked           How is the world treating you these days? My ex-boyfriend said           I have no affection to give you.

  • Bunny Dearest: A Love Child is Born

    Bunny and I met recently through Bryan and we’ve fallen in love. He’s also our Asian love child, which has a little bit of an Oedipus-esque twist minus the shame and eyegauging, and I am happy to share the fruits of our love with all of my dear readers. I. From dearest Bunny Belletryst. Careful,…

  • Toning

    He’s done it again reminded me of him a text tone I used to long for and be excited about   He inspires bad things ending phrases with prepositions which I know is wrong but I do it anyway when I think of him   He’s left an imprint on my life like my friend…

  • SuckerPunch: What To Do, What To Do

    It’s happened. A continuation of a saga I thought was as over as it was going to be. Maybe it’s predictable. But the wind is knocked out of me and I feel as though my life depends on how I recover my breath. My ex-boyfriend emailed me, asking how the world was treating me. When…

  • happen

    I take a break from my guilt A night of fun with my unrequited love He’s unrequited but not really my love I need him for much bigger things Bob Seger’s voice haunts Somewhere tonight someone’s thinking back to someone who got closer   I try hard to concentrate this song is about me this…

  • Just a FYI Post: Nothing Artsy

    Believe it or not, people don’t think of me as particularly brash. Perhaps pessimistic but I’ve been called many a time “happy go lucky,” which is ironic and sad because I am not happy or lucky and I don’t like to go anywhere. Or as Bryan would say, I’m only happy when I’m in my…
