I was rereading Diane Eichenbaum’s Soul Signs and came across a poem she cited, written by a Californian, grade-school girl
[partial]:
I am the moon.
I am the sky.
I am someone no one else has been.
I am the person that gets everything they want.
I am the one and only princess in the world.
I am an astronaut that always goes to Pluto,
I am a flower that never dies.
it reminded me of your current bit on manifestation.
I think I’m going to manifest being the one and only princess in the world (but I still plan to do it with a cheeseburger in a van down by the river ::smirk::).
What would you like to make of yourself?
I aspire to being as quirky and wise as the aunts in Practical Magic.
Hah, I love that poem. That girl dreams big. Good for her. I hope she doesn’t let anyone take that away.
satori – I am sorry because I know I had a hand in that… 😛
I want to be a cross between David Sedaris and Joss Whedon.
I started thinking the princess thing, bit by bit, after a breakup a few years ago. I was really mad. I didn’t really want to date but I decided to put something up on match. it was kind of a “goddammit, universerse: THIS is what I want!” thing. I put up this:
Princess Seeks Vasectomized Orphan.
I took it down almost immediately. beyond all reason I did get a few responses. Geminis.
the idea has seeped in though. I may actually be more of a princess than I ever wanted to admit to myself. I’m a pretty, fucking princess, goddammit.
bahaha! yes, you did! but absolutely no need to be sorry! the anger passed and the thought morphed into “Princess Not Seeking Anything at All, but if a Prince Should Happen Along…”
Jennifer, I love that.
you know what amalgam comes to mind:
you can’t kill the motherfuckin’ vampire… you might can fuck him up a bit but he’s still flyin’!
shiny.
actually, that should be “BITCH, he’s still flyin’!”
god I love that Sedaris bit, The Rooster.
Why would I want to be a Princess when I AM one with my Right Sided Chart? 😀
This remind me of a movie I just watched “enchanted”. very nice movie. You can watch it for free at:
a force for good in the world.
and strong.
my son would say “a dragon” for both of us 😉
