just had to say

I watch ANTM, religiously. And this is the first season my favourite two ended up in the top two.

Nicole

Laura

Also happen to be the names of my twin cousins. How does one choose?
(Nicole. Sorry, Laura.)

i am so bloody tired
i’ve been lying here for years
trying to catch some shut eye
before my time is up and
i’m
back in the rear of the shop

he polishes my pupils once a month
thinking the glint will glare
something seductive to passerbys
something that will bring them in

in the meantime i
just want to wink at you
or you
i want to slap that pervert tin soldier
who’s been ogling my breasts
since he arrived in his box
some time around last fall

please sit me up
or roll me over

there are so many things to tell

under sheets

under sheets should i
perspire perhaps
pleading plumbing
perhapsing

per hap sing –

a dreary nomad’s tale traipsing
trespassing
talking
of the dark morn when the ceiling of the sky split
and the sun broke, yellow and runny
a yoke that spilt over my eyes and through my hair
and past our toes into the earth

we couldn’t see one another through the albumen

is this the story that’s sleeping
under sheets?

Roisin Murphy

We’ll make a movie, we’ll break into cinema
You’ll be director and I’ll be your movie star

Just another Tuesday, sitting around listening to Roisin Murphy and writing about celebrity gossip.

Someone make me famous, already.
