What Happiness Is

Be wild and lovely

This is the house that built me and I’m gonna burn it down. This is the river I crawled from and I refuse to drown here. And bless the strippers but fuck the men. And bless the berries but fuck the farm. And bless the daughter but fuck the family. What is a home if not the first place you learn to run from? You’ve got to bite the hand that starves you, and in doing so Praise the place that birthed you. Birthed you fucked up. Birthed you ugly, and interesting, and ready to scream.

 make out sonnet by F. Douglas Brown

[pronouncingitwang]

[image text:

The first time I saw two men kissing, I was six,

Living in 1970s L.A. My mom took care

Of an elderly woman who found herself in a fix

And moved into a complex of all men, bare

Chested men, with cutoff jeans and tinted glasses.

My mother’s friend gave me chocolates that matched

Her skin—this must be heaven. These sons’ asses

Peeked out beneath their shorts, but watched

Over her better than mom. Took donations for heat,

A sofa and a new wig—all changed her mood.

They even did her laundry. They did sweet

Better than honey. Did family better than blood.

And between duties, two men always off alone

So desire, like the dishes, could also get done.

Thunderstorm jazz is freaking awesome. I need an album of that. I’d sleep like a baby.

Reblogging not for the first nor the last time. There’s just something right about this conjunction of laid-back music and lively weather…
