Bad Sex

To get through bad sex we pretend, think anything-
count sheep jumping gates whilst faking orgasm.
The more we fantasise the better we appear to endure,
the more we are forced to fantasise even more,
for being stuck in the rutting. Whilst in our heart
of hearts we would be much happier doing nothing.

Drugs For Everyone

The next time a politician wants a bit of theatre
on their own terms, and to play with the public
for their own gain by calling for 'a debate on...  ',
and they choose the subject of illegal drugs
then maybe who ever wants to say the present law
is an ass will put this way; 'All drugs are safe;
it is the misusers of drugs (particularly alcohol)
who are unsafe for misusing them'.
The response would run something like
'We agree with you minister that they are not just unsafe
for themselves but dangerous for others-their dependents,
co-workers and community. So minister by all means
use the law against unsafe drug users, and abusers
of substances who abuse those in their care.
But leave alone the people who take their drugs safely'.
The safe should decide for themselves who is safe
and who is not. That should end the debate nicely. 

And You Will Know Them By Their Medicine Cabinets

This picture was taken after Andy Warhol died, in Jan 1987.
 It changed how the public viewed him, because he was so 'private'.
 At an estimated 50 items it seems Andy Warhol
was either 1) very ill throughout his life, 2) very vain,
 or 3)he was the most creative hypochondriac in art history.

My Problem With Multi-tasking

is not that I can't do it.
I can. It is more that the jobs
I am expected to perform
simultaneously are jobs
that I (or any sane person)
would not want to do,
neither separately nor all at once.

Sinead O'Connor

said 'I have full time career being myself'.
I know what she means. Every day I find
that I have a big enough job just being who I am,
never mind attempting gainful employment.
