that special head

Jesus pieces
Rescue me
The more I try
The more it gets too complicated
Jesus pieces
Rescue me
The more I give up
The more it takes
The more it takes

* a job
* a decent, affordable place to live with my boys
* both in FoCo

Thanks.

I just learned that “in many states, an abused person cannot obtain a restraining order to keep the abuser away if that person is of the same sex”.
Because boys don’t hit each other? A woman would never hurt another woman? Abuse is just as unbiased as love, and this is utter bullshit. Holy crap, people. WHAT ARE WE DOING WRONG IN THIS WORLD??!

Phenomenal Woman
By Maya Angelou

Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I’m not cute or built to suit a fashion model’s size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I’m telling lies.
I say,
It’s in the reach of my arms,
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.

I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It’s the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.

Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can’t touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them,
They say they still can’t see.
I say,
It’s in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.

Now you understand
Just why my head’s not bowed.
I don’t shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing,
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It’s in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
the palm of my hand,
The need for my care.
’Cause I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.

My big teddy bear of a Maine Coon snuggled into my shoulder with his arm draped around my neck, the baby cat perched on my hip, both purring madly away.
