http://sneakingpoems.blogspot.com/2009/04/politically-incorrect-fantasy.html
Sneaking Poems Into Academia. Wednesday, April 22, 2009. So, I've been wondering.does it make me a bad feminist if I occasionally daydream about quitting school to pursue the privileged life of the housewife? I do not say homemaker because that implies work; it suggests raising kids, educating and feeding them as well as cleaning kitchens and doing laundry and worrying about keeping a family sane, healthy and together. That sounds exhausting! Dude Who DOESNT want to live in the lap of luxury? The semi-co...

Several students wrote the following answer:. Abu Ghraib is an old prison turned into America.". Sunday, October 26, 2008. Sign I am growing up. We have a down payment on a house!

Sneaking Poems Into Academia. Wednesday, July 30, 2008. Fighting the lure of self-loathing. Why can't this be the epitome of beauty? Check out this pic of Marilyn. She has hips, her thighs touch, she has a bit of a tummy. Yet, she was the penultimate sex symbol. Why can't this still be the standard body image? I hate being a woman sometimes. I just saw pictures of me in Taos, and I look e-nor-mous! I must never eat again! This is not okay. Skinny does not really. Look good on women. Case in point. Sunday...

Still, it felt amazing. I wonder what else we did that day. Cordi, do you remember? Were we ever this young? It feels like a million years ago. It was only 9.

Sneaking Poems Into Academia: Captain Negativo
http://sneakingpoems.blogspot.com/2009/07/captain-negativo.html
Sneaking Poems Into Academia. Thursday, July 30, 2009. So it's been a while. I thought I'd take this opportunity to invite everyone into my negative space for just a moment. When a former rival sends you pictures of her/his children on some social networking site, are you ever tempted to comment, "Huh. Wonder if she/he will end up being as big of an a-hole as you were.". Or is that just me having a terrible week? I have never been tempted before, but now I probably will be. You have my empathy. The Poetr...

Sneaking Poems Into Academia. Monday, January 12, 2009. With Monday, comes a second wind. I'm feeling much better.mostly due to the inordinate amounts of work I have to keep me busy. Given said work, here's a poem for the day:. I, Up They soar. Translated by Susanna Nied. Up they soar, the planet's butterflies,. Pigments from the warm body of the earth,. Cinnabar, ochre, phosphor yellow, gold. A swarm of basic elements aloft. Is this flickering of wings only a shoal. Himself as dark mnemosyne Appolo,.
