Bistro Bijou

[Angeline]

I wanna be a snaky elitist poet when I grow up. It sounds like fun.

I've never thought of you as snarky (or snaky for that matter), though I think you have high snark poetential (typo intended--I made by mistake it and then decided I really like that word).

I can't be an elitist. It conflicts with my Groucho "won't belong to any club that'll have me as a member" philosophy.

 

[Angeline]

Damn I seriously can't get out of here! And I'm supposed to be somewhere! But these cool things keep happening!

Hi Ange hi Sara Sara and just as I'm literally walking out the door of the shop, keys in hand, this song, of all things, comes on and it's the absolute number one audiosexual song of all time, in my little alien world anyway. I get literally incapacitated to most Lush tunes. So I didn't dare just walk away and drive anyway, cause I'd be a danger...

so of course I have to stay and writhe for four minutes and then long as I'm still here, come back to the bistro for a minute...

okay, dammit. I really must must go. You all are too fabulous for my own good.

And you have beautiful skin. Just sayin.

Hey Baby Bijou!

Don't go!

Hmm, I can be elitist-like if it's fess up time. I would never discourage anyone from pursuits but I would would have definite ideas of what I would consider enjoyable for my own personal consumption. And, if I am going to enjoy it well, then I probably think it's good on some level and as soon as I think something is good then that probably means I think something out there is bad.

I am definitely snaky and snarky but that all usually takes the form of sarcasm and I try to only show that side of me with people who a. deserve it or b. know I'm kidding.

 

[normal jean]

It's scary in there.
*kisses the floor of the bistro*

I second that!

I went in there , a loooong time ago, and asked a simple question and was called names I wouldn't repeat in t he presence of my friends, or my enemies.

I kinda get a kick out of the fact that they censor themselves from the poetry board. That is fine with me, but I try to welcome as many newbies here as I can.

Oh! I got a really nice email from DeniseNoe, I invited her in, but I haven't been here enough lately to know if she popped in or not. She is a sweetie and a very talented writer. If you haven't peeked in at her page, it might be worth a bit of your time.

She managed to garner an E in the story section and poetry section in the same week. I don't think I have ever seen that happen before and I've been here a while.



luv y'all

Hey Baby Bijou!

Don't go!

Unless you're wearing a KILT I don't think the upbj chiquita will be hanging around... Poor us.

Hey Beautiful!

Ya know what I think of when I see you pop in? Your Stepford wives poem, but you have written so much good stuff. Have anything new in the *real* world yet?

ps, I've missed you

I'm a lazy, gauche poet. I don't comment on poems on the new page much any more so I can't be a snarky, elitist poet.

Edgeplay - any play that involves the sort of play that 'normal' kinksters and dabblers tend to avoid. Includes knives, fire, needles, suspension, branding, cutting, etc. In other words, the crazy shit.

Knifeplay - playing with knives or other blades. Usually refers to using the blade for sensation play and mindfuck. "Cutting" is the term for using the knife to break flesh. I do a lot of knifeplay, but very little cutting.

Edging - bringing someone almost to orgasm and keeping them there for an extended period of time. Also known as 'brinking'
Orgasm control - self explanatory, and damned good fun. Leads to some truly sublime moments such as making someone come via text message.

These are my take on those terms, and how I use them. Your mileage may vary.

i'll take "brinking" for $1000, Alex!

Hi NJ, I just wanted to take an opportunity while we're both in here, to say thanks for your thoughts on my poem over at editred. I'm definitely an empath and I have terrible times when I'm around mourning families or people in pain. It's a major reason I could never be an MD or a nurse, although, physical therapy is a fun way to apply medical help without being caught up in true life dramas.

I hope you're having wonderful weather in preparation for July 4th. It's gorgeous here and I just know the beach will be super on Tuesday...

I'll take your lazy and tweak it into productivity. I prefer seeing you write poems (that goes for all of you) than fret about leaving public comments.

Any poet who looks like James Dean is by definition not gauche, bud. Nor lazy.

Sensitive, perhaps. Hotter than a west Texas bonfire, perhaps. But in no way gauche.

I mean, that's some Frenchie thing.

But but but...you're already in the oval. Once you're in it's too late. You can never leave.

 

[Tzara]

I am definitely snaky...

I just know I get some snaky vibes off you, Ms. Crewe, though that snakiness may be more me than you.

Damn Freudian embolism. Symbolism. Whatever.

 

[normal jean]

But but but...you're already in the oval. Once you're in it's too late. You can never leave.

what she said, muawahaha. I love the oval and meant to ask, will there be a formal initiation party some day? with spanking and all sorts of cool stuff?

and dernit, Jamison, you aren't lazy, you are a thinking man. A gorgeous thinking man. no need to get all sweaty while you are coming up with those poems and stories of yours.

And Champ, it is always a pleasure to read you, no matter where I find your poems. ER has been a good place to be..did you know my daughter, Manda invited me there? Your most recent poem is awesome, I can tell you are very empathic, like Deanna Troy, you feel the pain and that can be very hard sometimes, I know.

well I am off to do some laundry...what fun

hearts and roses to all you sweeties

I don't have a fret bone in my body. And, and... I have been writing poems.

Point taken. haha.. Frenchie thing.

"Just when I thought I was out... they pull me back in." Like the mafia, eh?

Only thing I can offer is that I have a kilt...one I wore for five years of high school. Should I go put it on?

 

[Sara Crewe]

Damn Freudian embolism. Symbolism. Whatever.

What's the treatment for an embolism. Mouth to mouth? C'mere. I'll save you.

i feel this way as a general rule. flippancy is a gem, but (particularly with the written word, when you can't gauge tone/inflection) i use it like cayenne. lightly and just enough for flavor and some kick.

 

[Sara Crewe]

Hey Chickie!

Nice to see you! I loved that poem. It was full of snarky anti-elitism!

Writing gets pushed to the back of the desk now when I am teaching so nothing new in the real world. Trying to get the chapbook thing together and I'll start writing new stuff soon.

So, good to see you smiling and I am so sorry about the loss of your kitty.

*closes notebook after penning another villanelle*

I feel better now. What are we talking about?
Hey! Where did bj go?

[sassynyc]

doesn't she though?

 

[Tzara]

Mouth to mouth?

Well, not precisely.

This is Freud we're talking about.

 

[Sara Crewe]

Well, not precisely.

This is Freud we're talking about.

Right. I really wouldn't have liked him all that much. I'm a say what you mean and get down ta business kinda person. How 'bout I kiss your embolism?

 

[LadynStFreknBed]

Well, not precisely.

This is Freud we're talking about.

Freud? We're talking about Freud?
I feel so lost.
LOL
