Reading, learning to make love, overthrowing patriarchal capitalist empires, making enemies by being true to who I know I......'m to be, making folks uncomfortable for the same reasons, cresting, smelling like gardenias, writing, my cat Lou, my dog Bobby Hank, editing, cooking, reviewing, watching my scars turn glassy, and pretending to not want you to want me back.BLOOD & INK: THE BECHET HOUSE READING SERIES continues Saturday, February 24th at 4pm. Open mic. Contact [email protected] with questions or submissions to the Blood & Ink Lit Journal.
I'd like to meet:
Madmen, raconteaurs, philosophers, writers, adventurers, those thrown out of the Jim Rose Circus for being too freaky, Nice Guys, women who advertise their minds and humors, drag kings, drag queens, lesbians, femmes, dommes, dykes, subs, the founders of The Revolution Afoot, record store owners, owners of records, folks with so many books they have wound up nestled in between the food processor and the box of crackers, and your mother.
I feel it......'s worth noting who I do not care to meet:
1. Folks who write ......"ur......" for ......"your......' or ......"you......'re......."
2. Fascist Republicans.
3. People who hear something they don......'t understand and play along instead of ask what something means.
4. Anyone who spends too much time at a gym.
5. Anyone who doesn......'t read anything.
6. Parrotheads.
7. People who don......'t ......"get......" why others have pets.
8. Men who are just looking to get laid and decide to aim that lazy-eyed laser of lust in my direction. Fuck. Off.
9. Anyone who ......"Friends......" me without some sort of introduction, and anyone who ......"Friends......" me with introduction that I can tell has obviously not read my blogs or this ......"About Me......" section--I......'m talking to you, linguistically challenged muscleheads who keep fucking mailing me repeatedly!
......"If you......'re going to shackle yourself to one cock for the rest of your life it......'s best to make sure the guy attached is cool......."
~Faye the Astounding
......"If you......'re going to make the wrong decision at least let it be an informed wrong decision......."
~Sharon
......"Hey, I don......'t have LOW standards...I have NO standards!......" ~Zeedonk
......"You know how there are Criterion Editions? We......'re like THAT--bigger, better and with special features previously unseen six years ago......."
