I AM FABULOUS!!!!!
by Joanna Gilman Hyde
The Hawk Kitchen Outpost 3:47pm
I am growing My Thick Wavy Hair
to Its Self Organizing Length
I have already thrown out
My Black Jesus Underwear
& am taking My Black & Fuchsia
to The Salvation Army
I am wearing pale lipstick
I am taking up knitting
& MAYBE baking cookies —
The Severe Mrs Blair
has been outgrown
into The Youth of Joanna Hyde
before Her Mother Died
& She is of a quiet demeanor
Who now yells “Bless You”
when people sneeze!!!
Absolutely fascinating. —CC
That comment sounds trite. This piece feels like a culmination, the last episode of a season of sorts.
Chagall, I did not see these comments until now. They were not in my inbox so I don’t know what happened to them but thank you so much. You have been a significant part of my transition.
You’re welcome. Thank you – that is very kind of you to say. —CC
I remember this girl from Mountainview Avenue.
