Working and praying

So, about our 1st task as a group, I'm sorry I could only create the blog and share our work in class today, last day before due for 1st draft... I'm talking about the response to Love Orange, as granny. No to overload the blog with drafts and corrections, I'll put the original text and the changes I've made (as we had no time to discuss it) as a comment, alright? Tomorrow I'll bring the 4 copies demanded (only I'll be an hour late, coz of my work at a restaurant, but soon I hope to change the schedule and make it to the whole class). Stay well, farewell ***

...One more thing, Jim Morrison 'd say. I found a poem by Jim I'd like to dedicate to everybody and to serve as a start for some literary juice to our blog. Here goes. Hope you like it, and pardon the language...! (There's no such excuse in poetry, I was kidding.)


CURSES & INVOCATIONS

Weird bate-headed mongrels
I keep expecting one of you 
to rise
large buxom obese queens
garden hogs & cunt 
Veterans
quaint cabbage saints
Shit hoarders & individualists 
drag-strip officials
Tight lipped losers 
& lustful fuck salesmen
My militant dandies
all strange order of monsters
hot on the trail of the 
wood vine
We welcome you to our 
Procession

Response to Love Orange, as grandmother, if things have been different

Group: Coffee Philosophies


[Draft in class]


My dear Olly,

this Christmas, I prepared you a surprise. I want you to go downstairs and open the pink present. You'll find it under the Christmas tree. There's no reason to be affraid. You can do this on your own. It represents all of my love for you. Hold it tight to your heart when you feel alone.
I will always be there for you.

My orange is all yours...

Love,

Granny

I'll be sending a copy to Allyson, hoping she can print it, if she's planning on discussing it on that 1st hour I can't attend... Godspeed ***
