wise words from roseanne

from roseanneworld.com: “IMPEACH THE PRESIDENT AND THE VICE PRESIDENT, THEY ARE TRAITORS TO AMERICA, AND SO ARE ALL OF THEIR SUPPORTERS. IMPEACH! ANYONE IN CONGRESS WHO REFUSES TO SAVE OUR UNION FROM THESE TRAITORS BY DOING NOTHING NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. SAVE OUR TROOPS!!! SAVE OUR SCHOOLS AND HOSPITALS AND JOBS. FEED OUR HUNGRY AND POOR! SAVE THE DROWNING PEOPLE IN NEW ORLEANS! ANYONE WHO MENTIONS PARIS HILTON ONE MORE TIME MUST DIE!” i could not agree more....

bed at 11 - up & can't sleep

Oranges & the process of enjoyment
Has always been paramount in my life
See ever since I can remember
That's what my mamaw
Always did for me

Its not like that was our relationship
We were extremely close
For some reason she
Being an old republican from louisana history stock

And i being an unidentified gay man
Searching for somewhere, somehow to fit in
she & I got both got it
Differant spheres, univserses
But the feelings, the emotions, the pathology
SAME SAME SAME

Last week I was on set
Working again, even for a brief moment
2 days was so much bliss
But serioulsy I've gotten way 2 much in my rut
Those 2 days killed me
And then the trip down south
A blog and pics coming soon I swear

So the point is I am working
And susan our craft services goddess
Serioulsy tip 1...make them ur cohorts
The one that feeds u - has all the power

So she offers me some high fralutant orange
Upon discovering there was no distowel
No kitchen towel, no fancy knife
I refused the offer

I must admit mamaw always had to have
a brown wooden handle on her nice knife
Used to cut through the hard exterior
Of the orange

Ill admit it I use black, white red knifes
As long as they are cut throat nice
They fit into my trips down memory lane
As long as I've got a dishtown too
Though orange cutting, tho cathardic
Just aint the same when u r doing it just 4 u

I often wonder what she's thinking
When she looks down on me
From whatever realm she's in
Blissfully happy, free from the worlds ills

I hope she's proud still
I may have taken to wearing lepord slippers 2 bed
But I still cut my oranges the same
And open doors for ladies all the time
Even when I get stuck there for 20 minutes
LA people are entitled yo!
I think its hillarious.

S-I-C-K-O
So I'm not a big movie plugger
But I saw a screening last week
Everyone needs to see it

I know the game works
Everyone with their own agenda
Strip that asside & see how great we r to our
A movie that makes u think...art
Michael moore genius!

goodbye

why is that word so hard
to utter from my lips
good bye
my love
my friend
my foe
goodbye

tonight i did it, ackwardly
saying goodbye to loved ones
i will see you when
tomorrow after a LONG day
i will see others
whom i love

my heart is always wide open
u let too much in
i've been told
by many a shrink
then i quit going
goodobye

hillary's new campain ad
it's all over the place
i love it
stereotypes, the norm
goodbye

i'm actually writing a show
i'm really going to do this
in front of people i know
people i love, i care what they think
dilitane
goodbye

notes on grad

aula graduation

i was 15 min late per usual
and paid $20 to valet
parking was free
at the theatre
the orpheum
downtown
magic

i quickly took my seat
in the balcony
where an antioch student
taking my ticketmaster ticket
asked me if i was sitting

when i questioned my seat
she restated it
statement this time
you are

all in all i would say the ceremony
as college graduations - been to 2
long, long, and unorganized properly
as is the antiochian way

the speakers is the real comedy gold
the above i will spin slightly
the speakers all had pearls
golden tickets of their own
untouched by me

opening speaker
antioch college
closed last week
bad press (what press)
yada yada yada

bridge program speaker
by far the star of them all
compared her nine month
experience as antiochian
to being chased down
and shot in the eye
by gang bangers

flint who i have com to appreciate
she as her intro said fights all societal roles
to the point for over a year it annoyed me
on a multitude of levels to the tenth degree
now i accept flint for who flint wants to be
just flint

just flint's analogy was antioch
was her girl crush
afraid to call
uncommitted
as she spoke
i saw it come to concept
fruition as comedy
ummm its flint

mae program speaker or teacher program
compared her antioch experience
no well 1st grad - then a MASTERS program
to harry potter - like a 5th grader
out of place & awwwwkward

to commencement speaker from cal state riverside
evidently domiguez hills staff had a bbq that day
told us in the first three seconds of her speech
supposed to move, motivate, & enspire

that upon sharing it with her 3 sons
they found it uninteresting and not impressive
so don't remember a thing she said
common' her songs have 2 be her hardest critics
and i just can not be bothered

then, as if it hadn't only been two hours that passed
the graduation procession began
like a bang, i had checked out
gone off to malta in my mind

people in robes walking across stage
FUCK my moment
i wanted 2 take pics
decision time

run downstairs and rush the front
in hopes to get a few good pics
of my lady friends walking antioch out
or stay and hoot from my nose bleed seats
as they paraded out to get their degree cover

i hope the choice was as obvious 2 u
as it was to me - pic of me an maria up!
and peace

i've gotten emails
re: profile pic
fuck off
i say

tomorrow
i get up
at 8 am
workout
then aula
at orpheum

my friends
will walk
maria
yumi
allison
jodi
love 4 all

aula still open
auoh (i think)
closed
wtf
i say

still haven't finished
my writing
due last week

my mind is elsewhere
life is a blur
deal or no deal

new projects on the horizon
i am writing
like a mad man

just not
what
i need
2 be
fuck off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

vintage saved by the bell

with the craziness that is dustin diamond
on celebrity fit club which i watch
when i work out - more not than often
these days...but today i saw
sunday's episode

watch

pride

'do u know where the gays are'
i hear from behind
as i exit the chevron
tonight on my way home

i look back to see 2 kids
i say kids, because they were
barely 16 if that
i think, saying nothing

'santa monica boulevard?'
the other says, pitch raised
i ponder a moment
and point
south

this weekend i tried pride
2nd and 3rd attempts
a last for me
for a while

i'm proud as fuck
of who i am becoming
don't need a crowd
to validate that

saturday night
random inbreads
everywhere

was with a group
wanted to go home
little hope 4 me
i knew, so...
i just got wasted

sunday i woke up
tried again
the parade
first one
besides tranny pride
with glass

again i felt out of sorts
out of place, not my scene
this time i went home
much to the shagrin
of my gaggle of gays

we are all different but
being gay is like high school
this time around different
i proudly bow out
with a smile of satisfaction

the times they are a changing...

tonight

a memorial
one of us
i thought
when i learned
it wasnt
in our home
discount
it makes it easier
that way

out with the BF
beauty beyond words
if she could only c
for a minute
u r enuf
i tell her
in so many forms

met three really cool chicks
women - sorry lila
austin texas baby
3 weeks
can not wait
ghetto
i miss

mels is doing great
always she
but scored
gayer
than me

its quarters end
lots of papers due
i am feeling 2 much
2 do all this thinking
if only
everyone
understood
