  • Consequences of a Diss

    For the record, Bryan was supposed to read his poetry at 3:15. I was in town by 2:45 when he texted me and was like, “well, it’s done and you’re a sorry excuse for a medicated lady,” which was a bit harsh but he was a diva at a gay pride event so I give him…

  • Olden Times

    I’m not sure anyone will necessarily think this is funny but it amused me. If you want a good time, go back to your old emails and read them. Share them.

  • Run-ons

  • Specifically Calling Out Poeticgrin aka Bryan Borland

    I have been irrevocably offended. In a poem recently submitted to me for approval/critique/kicks, someone used  two of the three word phrase I use in one of my delectable and entertaining poetic series. This violation will be worth a life time of 6’s and 8’s– never a 7!!

  • Dear Medicated Lady: the Column

    Dear Medicated Lady,   “Can you define ‘irony’?”   Paul   Dearest Paul,   I am reading a book about this schizophrenic lady who goes on rants, creating the proverbial word salad. Now. I shall attempt to answer your question in the same format.   Irony? Because I need more iron siren, crying. Do you…

  • For Someone Who Sees Partly Sunny Skies
