Queen of the Clouds (poem)

Truth be told,      as if the truth is ever told It's bold, whilst you're emboldened In the streets, beholden to no one Howling for blood Loud in even louder crowds... You've forgotten That I'm Queen of the Clouds Wolves are merely beasts That grovel at mah feets I'll throw that gavel Through the glass Out onto the gravel Shrill through the shards I cast justice through the crowds Everyone cowering, no, nobody bows To the Queen of the Clouds But my will be ill quill I'll write the fucking song To save the world He's got his sister He's got his son I have no one Towering stoic Female heroic I'll get bi Break through Shackles & shrouds Because I'm the mother fuckin' Queen of the Clouds You can bring the gasoline You can bring the silver silent pellets But your palate is a plate back at my place where you'd feast upon my pelt Never even got felt up Belt stuck Carpet burns on your face Falling somewhere...

No More Mr. Nice Guys ***SPOILERS***

   I didn't know it was possible for a turd to cost 50 million dollars but as evidenced by Hollywood magick, it most certainly can in the form of a movie that should have never made it into production: The Nice Guys. A completely misleading trailer, it was packaged as a comedy not a mystery/crime film. Since nobody gives a shit about movie posters or their taglines anymore, except those living in a realm of nostalgia, had I known the tagline on this waste of space POS was "Nice Pair - This Summer" I wouldn't have seen it because that awful "phrasing" alone would have clued me on not wasting the two hours of my life that I can never get back.  The nice pair are certainly boobs but of the yahoo variety, however ladies and ladies, we're still going to squeeze them.  In the context of the thing that aspired to be a film, the boobs are wannabe private dicks (ha, ha - get it? "dicks" ) Holland March (Gosling) and Jackson Healty (Crowe).  But ...

"Daddy Issues" Episode #3 - How High Can Heinz Fly? (memoir)

T his is supposed to be like therapy or something so, read at your own risk.  I was thinking about joining a blog community specifically on abuse survivors, but it's moderated and edited, plus I read some of the hosted entries already - most of which are short, brief, mainly one time or occasional  acts.     Not to downplay one traumatic rape or two. I always told myself, it wasn't that bad, what I experienced.  Downplayed it.  But this week my PTSD was borderline disruptive.  Hate to say it but the rebirth or reboot of one of my greatest loves the 'X-Files' probably was a trigger... Anyway I just want to burp up one terrible or traumatic memory for me, whenever the compulsion drives me.  There's no sitting shotgun in this car, so climb in the back seat. My mind is Swiss-cheese.   No one I know even knows the extent.  Life is madness, disease, a wriggling mass of wormholes, my...

Let Sweetie Little Jean's Elephant Out of the Room

Cage the Elephant recently released a heavy-handed pro-female album entitled 'Tell Me I'm Pretty' and an entire critique of the album could easily be done, it is rich in complex symbolism, deployed via simplistic lyrics (makes sense since Dan Auerbach from The Black Keys assisted in production).  However o ne track that I'd like to specifically focus on from 'Tell Me I'm Pretty' is Sweetie Little Jean.     In this part of the world it's Track 2 Mess Around that is getting the most airtime on the radio, but Sweetie Little Jean  is sitting pretty as Track 3 on the album and is hands-down the most important song from Cage the Elephant's most recent compilation.  If you listen to the song without really paying attention to the lyrics, it has an old fashioned twang of a poppy unrequited love ballad.  But when you actively listen to the entire song including full absorption of the lyrics, it quickly l...

Will the Zika Virus Finally Allow Women to Opt Out of Pregnancy?

Microcephaly The Zika virus is linked to causing the recent surge in what was once a rare condition-- microcephaly --a birth defect characterized by small heads and brains (as depicted above).  Linked to the spread of Zika is the  "Tiger Mosquito " as carrier, whose territory due to Global Warming has been expanding, to pretty much everywhere except Canada. Asian tiger mosquito Thus it is an invasive species, more commonly known as the Asian tiger mosquito  (Aedes albopictus) , n amed for the black-and-white stripes on its body and known for its aggression as the Asian tiger bites all day long, from morning until night, unlike most North American species who only do so at dusk. It has a real blood-lust for us blood bursting humans and  once it's on you, it doesn't let go. Other insects are now harassing U.S. residents, such as the innocuous sounding  Gallinippers (Psorophora ciliata), ...

The Real Issue with Kylie Jenner's Wheelchair ***NSFW***

Everyone is freaking out about this Kylie Jenner Interview photo-shoot, from Tuesday.  The most outrage being generated that an able-bodied Kylie was posed in a wheelchair for the magazine cover.   What is disturbingly lost in the echo of outrage is that all of these photos were designed to be risqué and blatantly objectify women.  Kylie Jenner wasn't posed in a wheelchair as a spoof on people that use wheelchairs, she was placed in a wheelchair because she's being portrayed as a sex doll - NOT handicapped .   Don't believe it?  Well take a gander at other pictures pulled off the internet that are two to four years old of a creepy ass dude pushing his sex doll around in public on a 'date' at the zoo: Pulled from Reddit. Bystanders in disbelief snapped these candid shots.  Since all three of these photos are of the same guy from different years, he obviously thinks this normal to do.  There'...
