Small

I am nothing like Hercules
No one fights me to prove their strength
Unlike Midas I've no thief to fear
For I've no money to my name
My beauty will never start a war
I am no Helen of Troy
It's naught to me, for I've no need
Of a thousand men for toys
Let others aspire to greatness
Let others try to catch the wind
Me? I am happy, I am content
Being now, as I have always been
Small

The Poet As a Poem

I am a group of obscure words


Written in an awkward sort of rhyme 


Read in a tiny sing song voice


Just a little 

                             
                          out of time



My rhythm is a bit uncouth


My concept a tad undefined 


You could blame it on my youth


But it made sense

 In my mind

One Day at a Time

Shit


Fuck


Look at me, I'm all grown up


Damn


Wow


Thought I'd have figured something out


By now

I've got a job, and a baby, and rent to pay


An ex-husband, and my love life?


Well


Let's just say


I never considered it going this way


Until the day


It did


Mind


I don't mind


I am feeling so fine



Ohmigod


It's a hell of a life


And I'm just taking it 

All 

In


One day at a time

Combining blogs and going a new direction

Hello, there lovely people! I've decided to take up blogging again! I have also decided to combine all my blogs on this one. So from now on this blog will contain not only my charming ramblings, but also my poetry, and also recipes. I'll start adding those of my old poems that I still like fairly shortly. Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy.

Something I found in the Readers Digest. I propose we begin using these immediately.

Life Advice

Lovely people, I have just received some fabulous advice from a darling waitress at my favorite cafe:
"If you go your whole life without ever pissing off the neighbors,  you're not really living"
I like it!



Disclaimer: Now, lovely people, you know good and well this is not carte blanche to be a butthead.

Sorry!

Well, hello there lovely people! It has certainly been quite a long time, and I am very, very sorry. Life has been quite hectic, and many things have happened and I have not kept up with any of my blogs. But, seeing as how my life is getting to resemble normality (not that I could ever be normal, gracious no), I have decided to start posting again. So hello again, and I'll see you soon.
