Smokey Filled Speak Easy

In the dim-lit alley of the soul's bazaar,

Where jazz and jive spill from ajar,

We tap our feet, snap fingers, under stars,

And speak in verses, raw and without pause.

The city breathes, a living, pulsing beat,

Its heart a drum, its voice a saxophone,

We weave through streets, our words a rhythmic feat,

In sync with life, yet distinctly our own.

We are the scribes of midnight's whispered tales,

Our ink, the dreams that dance in smokey air,

Each line is a track on which our spirit sails,

A journey deep, beyond the skin, we dare.

So let us write, with passion as our guide,

A beat poem, where our truths can't hide.

Then we'll take this magic carpet ride,

Sail across the earth’s air, standing in pride.

Bussing is definitely very different than hosting is. I'm still a little leery taking drinks out to tables, but I'm getting a little more confident the more I do it. Time will tell. The servers say I'm good at the job, so that's always a good thing.

After that, I had a photoshoot with a friend at The Last Bookstore, so that was a lot of fun. I'd never been there before (okay, I'd been in the area for a farmer's market, but I'd never been inside), so that was a good first. There's so much to do in the area that I'd already known about (like a speak-easy in a restaurant a couple streets over), and more that I discovered (the photographer took me to a gelato place a little further up the street from the bookstore), so I'd love to take someone there on a date... if I ever had the damn opportunity...

A really cool online comic-book about a speak-easy in New Orleans! I really like the sepia look and the art noveau details... Well done drawings, too!

ALEXIS FOXE is a True Fashionista Now

I had a chance to see and hear Alexis Foxe perform a few months ago at a fashion bloggers fundraiser. Ms. Foxe is one of those artist that takes you back to a time when cabaret and high fashion was in vogue. The sound of her music still resonates images of creativity and avante garde fashionistas and that's one of the reason I love her. I was excited to see her upcoming tour schedule titled 'LOVE IN THE TIME OF COLONICS' and thought I'd share it because she is a True Fashionista Now and we love her. Check out her website here or follow her on twitter @alexisfoxemusic for more details.
