Ruined Fig

You have ruined the fig for me
I could never eat one again
I could never go out and buy one
Or pick one from a tree
For you have ruined the fig for me

I could never peal it
Or smell it
Or place it near my lips
Let alone on my tonge
For you have ruined the fig for me

Understand that the taste is ruined,
Not changed
Or different
Or unusual
The taste is ruined
If I could place the fig in my mouth,
All I would taste is a ruined fig

I could never enjoy it,
I could never even ingest it,
Not now, not ever
For you have ruined the fig for me

From all the others,
That has ruined things for me,
Like the wishes from my eyelashes,
Or the smell of jasmine
Or the feel of sand between my toes,
Yours was the worst betrayal

Could you not have spared the fig?
For me?
I do not know why
But all I do know
Is that you have ruined the fig me

At the Bus stop....

I was standing at the bus stop. When I felt some one staring at me. I turned to look, and it was these intense blue/green eyes looking down at me. I was transfixed. Then I looked at his perfect face and hair and chest (thought it’s more like a two pack) but beautiful non-the-less, then I below that. I was first shocked, then horrified, then curious, then I could not stop looking at it.

I mean its in your face….okay I’m talking about the Dolce & Gabbana advert for light blue fragrance. For some reason the billboards of the guy is all over Sandton.


I could not stop looking at his crotch. I felt like a naughty school girl. But you cant help it. Even if your looking at his eyes, everyone looks at you like ‘please I know your looking at his package’. So I started talking about the advert with fellow lady bus passenger’s and they agreed were just as undecided as I was.

So my question is…is South African’s ready for such advertising?

I do think they could have gotten the same effect with a cropped version.



But the way people (mostly me) respond to the crotch is very funny. And I am just happy it is finally men who are barring all and I don’t have to stare at a women’s ass anymore. Who ever decided on this specific ad…two very enthusiastic thumbs up for you!!

P.S….I have still not seen the female version…but have seen the television version…I secretly like it ;)

I live in Sin

I live in sin
I dance with the fairies
Upon the plain of the heavens
I touch the heart of every man
I fly with the stars
And rest upon the clouds
And relish in the forbidden
I live in sin
I am free
I do as I please
I lay upon the velvet grass of Eden
And deluge into enchantment
I am free
Scarlet words have been bestowed upon me
A woman
So loathed
I live alone
I live in sin

Another Quote...

No man, can cross the same river twice
It will not be the same man
It will not be the same river
