Bistro Bijou

uhuh some stranger than others!

It's how I roll.

 

[UnderYourSpell]

Well, then this should do for both of you.



It's not every day you get to see Eric Clapton in a bouffant 'do, after all.

Not saying how old I was when that was made!

It's how I roll.

mmmm nibbles on the side?

I've been reading this thread for the past few days. Now, I'm trying to steal my muse back from Michael, who's using the poor thing so well that I can't seem to rouse a poem from her. But I know I can find a bit of soul music for upbj's hunger somewhere. Let me struggle away in notepad for a while and I'll coerce one of my muse's sisters to give me something for Hoppy.

A Conquistador Named Hoppy

Kiss me in defiant breath
which passes assurance
of victory over your lifelong
foe. The bogeyman, cold metallic
sweat in your nose; a finger
on the trigger in that muddy trench;
linger in the haunting dreams.
Let me know you've won
in jubilant kiss. My tear
is not regret or sorrow;
only loneliness. You go
on your pecos pony into western
glow, a cliched wave and final bow
while vanquished fear cringes
in the shadow and I know,
too soon, my battle will begin.

That is some tall, tall hair. And indeed, one of my favorite Cream songs.

I'll start by nibbling on your sides. Then I'll move either north or south, depending on which way the wind blows...

Sweet one, you made me cry, in a good way. Your muse must be back. Or maybe you should consider hiring the temp for a permanent position.

I am so grateful for all the people in my life right now, both in skin space and here in cyberland.

You know I'm not afraid of death oh sure I don't want it to be distressingly painful or traumatic but I do not fear it's coming. Death is part of me part of what I am as a human being. Often life is more frightening than death and I would hate to be that old feeble woman in a nursing home reliant on carers or nurses and all the indignities it would entail. We mourn the loss of loved ones feel the empty space inside but when I go I hope friends will do as I have asked ...... celebrate me, sing for me loudly and with joy that for one small space in time I maybe touched you for a while.

I love gargoyles nearly bought one once but it was too heavy to heft home so now a large stone pig and stone dragon guard my patio door

You forgot Gloria Grahame.

 

[unpredictablebijou]

A pig, Annie? That's totally adorable.


Gloria Grahame

and her Guns.

You can see where we got the idea of using rockets to get a man to the moon.

Personally, I want one of these:

Ein Victoria's Geheimnis.

God, you got a gut laugh out of me with that.

Sorry I don't seem to have any "9" jokes, other than the obvious ones based on the zodiac symbol

though these guys call that sign Capricorn, the Goat, not Cancer, which seems to be the usual interpretation.

Oh, hell. OK. Basic forum survival rule: when one finds oneself lacking in witty repartee (Hey, is that redundant?), link to Hendrix.

God give you good even', Ms. Bijou.

I've been told I write wonderful cathartic verses. Even I feel cleansed and renewed after a tear jerker moment with my poetry. I'm glad I could give you that gift Ms KC. Beaucoup de joie pour toi. <cyber hugglefucks>

(One small aside reminds me to remind you of Granny Grunt who says it's such a sexist thing that boys may whistle, but ladies sing... )

Those Guys are wrong. That's the sign for Cancer, cause that's what I am. It's one of the few perks of having an astrological sign named after a disease. Or vice versa.

Hendrix back atcha. One of my favorites.

Okay, what does it mean? And do you know any others? I may need them.

And here's a quote from a weird spam thread that has already gone by in the BDSM area:

I LIKE TO MAKE FRIENDSHIP WITH YOU.

I LIKE TO MAKE FRIENDSHIP WITH YOU.

That's all well and good, but I really want to snuff that little flame with my tongue.

No, in fact, it is not my birthday. Why do you ask?

Well make a wish anyway. What the hell.

You know how to whistle, right?
