A Woman's Manifesto
Because a woman’s work is never done. and is underpaid, or unpaid, or boring, or repetitious, and we’re the first to get fired, and what we look like is more important than what we do. And if we get raped its our fault and if we get beaten we must have provoked it and if we raise our voices we’re nagging bitches and if we enjoy sex we’re nymphos and if we don’t we’re frigid and if we love...

Man Vs. Heart Attack
I am somewhat worried about the dude on Man v Food. He isn’t looking so good these days and putting that food away like that can’t be good for him.

Interior
Her mind lives in a quiet room, A narrow room, and tall, With pretty lamps to quench the gloom And mottoes on the wall. There all the things are waxen neat And set in decorous lines; And there are posies, round and sweet, And little, straightened vines. Her mind lives tidily, apart From cold and noise and pain, And bolts the door against her heart, Out wailing in the rain.

Pantomime
Don’t cry, this kiss is a kiss goodbye.
Don’t cling, it’s time to part. Don’t look at me nor ask me why I’ve taken back my heart. No questioning, no pleading; No door remains ajar. No doubt your heart is bleeding, Deep wounds will leave a scar. Don’t hope to ever turn back time, Nor resurrect the flame Of what’s become a pantomime Of love, in all but...

For The Foxes
don’t feel sorry for me. I am a competent, satisfied human being. be sorry for the others who fidget complain who constantly rearrange their lives like furniture. juggling mates and attitudes their confusion is constant and it will touch whoever they deal with. beware of them: one of their key words is “love.” and beware those who only take instructions from their God for they...
The Only Place
The only place a woman can go to be alone is the bathroom. A woman would like to be wrapped in strong arms when she cries, without having to explain, or huddle on the couch wrapped in a blanket and a cat. But all over America, women crouch instead on a white, cold monument to wasting water. We lean against a chilled tile wall, stare at ourselves in an icy mirror, flush the toilet to cover...

Suicide in the Trenches
I knew a simple soldier boy Who grinned at life in empty joy, Slept soundly through the lonesome dark, And whistled early with the lark.
In winter trenches, cowed and glum, With crumps and lice and lack of rum, He put a bullet through his brain. No one spoke of him again.
You smug-faced crowds with kindling eye Who cheer when soldier lads march by, Sneak home and pray you’ll never...

Something Beautiful
I asked the internet to show me something beautiful.
Everything it showed me said, “Buy now!”
I don’t think the internet gets it.
Truth is beautiful, without doubt; but so are lies.
