Her face, flawless and filtered, flows over my chest, ribs, stomach, hips, fitting the curved mounds of my body, and even within simplicity of thread and dye, I sense her presence as her face hangs from my frame, a statement louder than pillow-lips, Nancy Sinatra-hair and a glamorous 60’s ***** face. When paired with leggings and an artfully-distressed denim jacket, I become a member of the “freshman generation of degenerate beauty queens,” a hipster fallen to the circumstance of youth, but I wear her face and the romance of it all reminds me: we are not defined as Lolitas lost in the hood, or distant, airy voices in a sea of crude jokes and half-baked skits meant to highlight shortcomings of a person who doesn’t give two ***** Lana fits me better than my ribbed, red sweater and even amidst gods and monsters, this T-shirt makes pretty last, and I am just as cool.

Ode to My Lana del Rey T-shirt
Miss Nancy Ellicott Strode across the hills and broke them, Rode across the hills and broke them— The barren New England hills— Riding to hounds Over the cow-pasture. Miss Nancy Ellicott smoked And danced all the modern dances; And her aunts were not quite sure how they felt about it, But they knew that it was modern. Upon the glazen shelves kept watch Matthew and Waldo, guardians of the faith, The army of unalterable law.

Cousin Nancy
I may hate you more tomorrow , but i'll never love you less for you're the one person i can always count on , you're simply the best and everyone who knows us predicted we won't last a sec it's like we're the opposite end of a spectrum, yet a single entity violating the norms of this hypocritical society simple,yet so **intriguing ** And girl , we go on so well together like bread and butter like milkshake and cookies YOU'RE THE MELODY..TO MY LYRICS and God only knows, the inspiration behind how many songs! the ones i've lost and also the ones i carry in my heart And without Nancy(my bestie) , where would Aditi(me) be? without you ...well that just can't be you're always sure of somethings, like the sun will always rise, that's the way you make me feel you're probably the only thing ..that drags me to the boring premises of dav{my school} (also the fact that 75%attendance is required but you get the idea) and looking at you , and looking at me .. and looking at the **** and crazy stuffs we do and we did i wonder how effortless it is how the kind of girl i'm ..everything looks scary to me but you just make it better somehow ,without even doing a thing and sometimes, i get this blurry pic of you and I we're close to being 75 silver hair , wrinkled cheeks sitting on a park bench,eating(that's her aka my bestie's favorite thing..eating) talking about the same old senseless thing and looking at each other with contempt and say "hey ,we made it to the end♥ "

*me and my bestie *
Snapshot memories of are past having so much fun with the hope that it would last To my best friend Nan, a beacon of light to a hurting world in need of love To the truest friend I ever had those memories by the stonewall Started playing together as friends She had blue eyes & long blonde hair I had brown eyes and brown hair roller skating on the sidewalk with the attached rollers with a key Went down by the brook to catch poly wags we both went to the same school Having sleep overs was a blast a secret passage to get to her father's soda shop Taking ice cream and delicious candy everything nice and dandy with Nancy Yours was are youth to be captured with a precious smile Cape cod trips when Nan would drive going to a trip to Provincetown watching the folks dive for money Big ships coming to dock the men would get the money in their mouths The island we used to go in a row boat along the beach Looking for young boys and we found them went to dances at the Bristol Boys Club Doing the latest dance craze the Huck Buck Boys wearing pegged pants and girls wore skirts To cherish those lasting memories of a time ago getting married Nan had three children Ann had six To raise and cherish the family united in love Today we are in are eighties both with medical issues Yet remained best friend's after all these years

Ann & Nan
I'm Bailey. I sometimes forget to recycle. I'm from singing camels and trigonometry. From soap bubbles and yellow scarves, Irish hymns and Zucchini the ferret, piano keys, bluebonnet seeds, and DO NOT ENTER signs. From salt. I'm the color of hosed off sidewalk chalk. I'm all summer in a day. I'm a conglomeration of artistic thoughts that make me look more profound than I actually am. I'm your infinite playlist. I'm from elephant necklaces and rosemary bushes from high-heeled taps and Camelot threadless socks, shopping carts, and impromptu salons. I'm the fifth ninja turtle. I live where you laugh so hard you cry. I'm from carrots and ranch. I'm a happy cow from California, a fortune cookie with your enchilada, a drill team skirt over marching uniforms. I'm from unfinished crossword puzzles and forgotten dead languages from pixie dust and snapcracklepop from actually-it's-pronounced's, because-i-said-so's, and that's-not-my-name's. I am Nancy Drew with a Peter Pan complex. I come from honeysuckle candles and sunroofs of pickup trucks broken-down fences and peach salsa the second you step onstage. I'm from in between. I'm Bailey. I don't drive the speed limit. And I'm from you.

Where I'm From
This is a song to celebrate banks, Because they are full of money and you go into them and all you hear is clinks and clanks, Or maybe a sound like the wind in the trees on the hills, Which is the rustling of the thousand dollar bills. Most bankers dwell in marble halls, Which they get to dwell in because they encourage deposits and discourage withdrawals, And particularly because they all observe one rule which woe betides the banker who fails to heed it, Which is you must never lend any money to anybody unless they don't need it. I know you, you cautious conservative banks! If people are worried about their rent it is your duty to deny them the loan of one nickel, yes, even one copper engraving of the martyred son of the late Nancy Hanks; Yes, if they request fifty dollars to pay for a baby you must look at them like Tarzan looking at an uppity ape in the jungle, And tell them what do they think a bank is, anyhow, they had better go get the money from their wife's aunt or ungle. But suppose people come in and they have a million and they want another million to pile on top of it, Why, you brim with the milk of human kindness and you urge them to accept every drop of it, And you lend them the million so then they have two million and this gives them the idea that they would be better off with four, So they already have two million as security so you have no hesitation in lending them two more, And all the vice-presidents nod their heads in rhythm, And the only question asked is do the borrowers want the money sent or do they want to take it withm. Because I think they deserve our appreciation and thanks, the ********* who go around saying that health and happi- ness are everything and money isn't essential, Because as soon as they have to borrow some unimportant money to maintain their health and happiness they starve to death so they can't go around any more sneering at good old money, which is nothing short of providential.

Bankers Are Just Like Anybody Else, Except Richer

Marissa Ann was a firecracker of a little girl. For her, there was no fence too tall to climb, no bully too mean to face, no street too busy to cross. She was all tangled hair and toothy grins. And she'd yank the book right out of my hands and say, "Gabrielle, we have more important things to do than read." In the jungle of our lives, Marissa was a lioness, queen of the pride. I was a mouse not indigenous to these parts of the second grade. The world was a terrifying place, and I had no problem cowering in the corner, knee-deep in a pile of Nancy Drew. I tried to stay huddled behind my words, drowning in the ink, attempting to let the pages be my armor. Marissa would not let me. When I allowed bookshelves to be my shields, she came guns blazing, and kicked them all down, then stood me back up on my feet. She'd grab my hand and pull me head first toward adventure. Marissa was tough, and everyone knew it. There was not a soul alive brave enough to pick on Marissa Ann. But me? I was an easy target. The other girls said I was "weird" with my enormous wire frames resting atop full cheeks, and my frayed jeans, a glowing reminder of my mother's lack of wealth. I heard the whispers on the playground about the chubby girl who read, (can you believe it?), chapter books. Brianna was a demon of a child. She'd bat her pretty little eyelashes and everyone would melt. She had the entire second grade class wrapped around her tiny little finger. She'd corner me on the soccer field and do everything she could to remind me that I was different. But one day at recess, she was nowhere to be found, until I made my way through winding halls, back to the warmth of our classroom. There sat Marissa with a devilish glint in her eye, waving me over to sit in the desk beside her. Behind us, a sniffling Brianna, looking forlornly at the teardrop stains on her pink lace skirt, her mouth pulled tight into a perfect straight line. I looked back at Marissa with a curious glance, then intertwined her hand with my own. The sound of stifled sobs behind us and the warmth of her skin on mine sealing an unspoken vow between two girls with puzzle piece fingertips that only fit each other.

The Many Adventures of Supergirl (and her dorky bookworm sidekick)

A Wife with a Knife
Let's hangout, old friend, you, me, and Ellis D. Martini. Let's roll in the grass and pretend we're six again, let's release our imaginations from responsibility. I once saw a black widow so I killed it. I found its eggs and killed them too. I found its sister and brother, mother and father, I found its lover and I killed them all. I used a broken broom handle and woke with bites on my ankles, the broom handle cared not to be used for ****** Let's drink all the orange juice we can find, and call me Nancy from now on, you can be Shirley. Surely, Shirley, I'd love to hangout; You, me, and Ellis D. Martini.

And If Your Nancy Frowns, My Lad
Ae fond kiss, and then we sever; Ae fareweel, and then for ever! Deep in heart-wrung tears I’ll pledge thee, Warring sighs and groans I’ll wage thee. Who shall say that Fortune grieves him While the star of hope she leaves him? Me, nae cheerful twinkle lights me, Dark despair around benights me. I’ll ne’er blame my partial fancy; Naething could resist my Nancy; But to see her was to love her, Love but her, and love for ever. Had we never loved sae kindly, Had we never loved sae blindly, Never met—or never parted, We had ne’er been broken-hearted. Fare thee weel, thou first and fairest! Fare thee weel, thou best and dearest! Thine be ilka joy and treasure, Peace, enjoyment, love, and pleasure! Ae fond kiss, and then we sever; Ae fareweel, alas, for ever! Deep in heart-wrung tears I’ll pledge thee, Warring sighs and groans I’ll wage thee.

Ae Fond Kiss, And Then We Sever
The boat ploughed on. Now Alcatraz was past And all the grey waves flamed to red again At the dead sun's last glimmer. Far and vast The Sausalito lights burned suddenly In little dots and clumps, as if a pen Had scrawled vague lines of gold across the hills; The sky was like a cup some rare wine fills, And stars came as he watched -- and he was free One splendid instant -- back in the great room, Curled in a chair with all of them beside And the whole world a rush of happy voices, With laughter beating in a clamorous tide. . . . Saw once again the heat of harvest fume Up to the empty sky in threads like glass, And ran, and was a part of what rejoices In thunderous nights of rain; lay in the grass Sun-baked and tired, looking through a maze Of tiny stems into a new green world; Once more knew eves of perfume, days ablaze With clear, dry heat on the brown, rolling fields; Shuddered with fearful ecstasy in bed Over a book of knights and ****** shields . . . The ship slowed, jarred and stopped. There, straight ahead, Were dock and fellows. Stumbling, he was whirled Out and away to meet them -- and his back Slumped to the old half-cringe, his hands fell slack; A big boy's arm went round him -- and a twist Sent shattering pain along his tortured wrist, As a voice cried, a bloated voice and fat, "Why it's Miss Nancy! Come along, you rat!"

Nancy Carol
Nancy loved Bobby, And Bobby loved Stacie, And Stacie was confused since she loved both simultaneously. What a strange shape we’ve built. The angles weren’t adding up, Bobby’s was way too much, Since he loved Stacie more than she loved Nancy. How pitifully confusing. Lines drawn with guilt. What is one man to do? Trapped between two girls, One who’s confused. These feelings, so deceiving, It seems like everyone’s destined to lose. This obtuse love triangle, Only spells doom. Nancy found Bobby making out with Stacie, And ran off crying in a hurry. Stacie felt guilty, but Bobby was just too lovely. The hypotenuse forgot the rules. Nancy and Stacie both vented their heavy hearts. They destroyed their friendship, and the words left nasty scars. All the while, Bobby was standing not too far away. He found Stacie crying because Nancy had called her a heinous name. But what’s a girl to do, When she’s emotionally confused? On the one hand, she has a guy who’s cute, On the other, a woman who could heal all her wounds. These feelings, so fleeting, It seems like everyone’s destined to lose… Oh, this obtuse love triangle, Only spells doom. In the end, none of them remained friends, They made a pact to never speak to each other again. They figured it would be the best thing to do. Bobby, Nancy, and Stacie, Feeling so blue and so lonely. I guess they’re lucky, That there’s always more fish in the sea. No use to spend all their love, On someone who didn’t know what they wanted. But what were they to do? In the game of love, they were new. They thought they knew, Who their heart belonged to. Fate demanded to be paid his dues, It seemed they were destined to lose… Oh, this obtuse love triangle, Only spells doom…

You've always been so loud. Yelling, and throwing my insecurities out for all the neighbors to see. Embarrassing me. Your voice is so annoying it's depressing me. With thoughts of my lows and rarely thoughts of my highs. I've become good at tuning you out. But on lonely days where your words seem so right I can't help but to get drunk off that cup of misery. But I'm tired of hanging with you - you simply make me so blue. And it's hard to get away from your words, let alone break away from you. So why don't I try something new. Your bags are packed and the über man's waiting- to take you - somewhere where lonely hearts go to do exactly what it is you like to do.

Negative Nancy
The things you'll think will always stay Will always seem to fade away. Whether you're like Joyce and you talk to the lights, Or you're like Mike, Dustin, and Lucas, and you just have to fight. You can't avoid the guaranteed, you can not make miracles. The spirits and creatures are against you, And you'll just make yourselves criminals. My friend is to move away, It is a miserable day. She's going to disappear like Will, Leaving me here to stay. I've just gotta remember Be brave like Nancy, Ask for help like Will, Use my mind like Eleven, and just CHILL. The things you think will always stay Will always seem to fade away. Fade Away

Fade Away
Dream is but a life, Severed from congruence and chronology. Did I imagine my memory? The adolescent blizzard, The tar pits of first love, The prepubescent honeycomb, The shedding of innocent skin, The infant cobweb spun by genetics. Death at the leg of my mate, Birth among a thousand siblings. Climbing to the ground From the sky where i was buried, Resting in rapid eye ether, Transparent atmospheres solidify With ruby whips of gravity. My reflection in your fingernails, My face askew in distortion, Your hand's a house of mirrors, Peeling at my silhouette. I'm drinking fire, As we cremate the sea. Nirvana becomes panoramic, The air ripples. The topaz pillar i held becomes my body pillow, And I wipe the sleep from my eye. The dream unstitched, We sew reality back up, But the thread gets thin At night.

From dark abodes to fair etherial light Th’ enraptur’d innocent has wing’d her flight; On the kind ***** of eternal love She finds unknown beatitude above. This known, ye parents, nor her loss deplore, She feels the iron hand of pain no more; The dispensations of unerring grace, Should turn your sorrows into grateful praise; Let then no tears for her henceforward flow, No more distress’d in our dark vale below, Her morning sun, which rose divinely bright, Was quickly mantled with the gloom of night; But hear in heav’n’s blest bow’rs your Nancy fair, And learn to imitate her language there. “Thou, Lord, whom I behold with glory crown’d, “By what sweet name, and in what tuneful sound “Wilt thou be prais’d? Seraphic pow’rs are faint “Infinite love and majesty to paint. “To thee let all their graceful voices raise, “And saints and angels join their songs of praise.” Perfect in bliss she from her heav’nly home Looks down, and smiling beckons you to come; Why then, fond parents, why these fruitless groans? Restrain your tears, and cease your plaintive moans. Freed from a world of sin, and snares, and pain, Why would you wish your daughter back again? No—bow resign’d. Let hope your grief control, And check the rising tumult of the soul. Calm in the prosperous, and adverse day, Adore the God who gives and takes away; Eye him in all, his holy name revere, Upright your actions, and your hearts sincere, Till having sail’d through life’s tempestuous sea, And from its rocks, and boist’rous billows free, Yourselves, safe landed on the blissful shore, Shall join your happy babe to part no more.

On The Death Of A Young Lady Of Five Years Of Age

Sugar nightmares haunt children Nancy harlequins cane them Oh, child of mine your life you did, away, sign. Force fed familiarity with already branded emotions, irregular realities and clouded surreal formalities, so very many humans’ form dichotomies out of our shared mute gray; spinning constant self-important prose. So very many humans share so much, so little, not often doing little to soften all of their emotional blows trying hard to strike enigmatic pose. Oh, child of mine the heart of utilitarian method has receded in incredulous fashion followed by authoritarian apologies; the majority is not icecream people spreading simple good thought, but generations fraught with trivial conformist ideologies. We are all hiding our seams with creative masks and self created tasks. Oh, child of mine your prescription reality is revealing itself as Atlantis, sinking and shuddering into Quaaludes with frightening psychotic interludes. Emotions paint stained lurid faces, dancing with ludes effecting movement, nudes of swaying and repose. You arose deeming so much rightfully yours waltzing through seemingly already opened doors. Holy curb their anti-Christ Consider your aging soul Oh, child of mine Belief of awareness in action understand the probability of dissatisfaction, Stop! treating the moment as a bleak bridge to the next inaction. Eventually ponderous thoughts form resembling an orrery, an incessantly philippic story orchestrates your oleaginous personality. Oh, child of mine Youth flees and your mind takes once again to the seas, a vexing penumbra of perception. Bathos permeates the fathoms of an obstreperous life and if you still care, lament that this meaningless congeries of moments inspires only delusion, no disillusionment. Eventually a lilting threnody leading 'tween burning pews of proposed serenity and the following bumping callithump will firmly stamp you into black infinity. Oh, child of mine You've used the switch too much too often coupled with lofty scoffing giving the innocent up as offering to the mechanical engine              of organic creation.
