When you decide
That I am worthy
Call me up
I won't act surly
My name is Jenny
Yours is Tim
Some days I think
I'll call you Jim
If I am right
And you are wrong
I’ll climb a tree
And sing a song
You are rich
I am poor
I’m no bitch
You have more
I’m a boat
You’re a ship
I am humble
You are flip
You’re the shoes
I’m the socks
We go stepping
Drinking Bocks
All the doubts
All the worries
Hit me up
And make things blurry
If I’m the pants
And you’re the shirt
Zip me up
So we can flirt
You say yes
I say maybe
You say no
I say date me
I like my bike
You like your rifle
If you shoot me
You’re sure to stifle
I see my legs
Are looking hairy
Winter is long
The look is scary
I like flowers
In the wild
I like writing
First person mild
I saw a face
Upon the moon
It had no race
The month was June
I saw a cloud
Looked like a fish
You shrieked loud
I made a wish
I have boobies
You have moobies
Yours are hairy
Put a shirt on
When I was young
I had kittens
That’s not true
I just had mittens

10 Movie Facts About Me
Per my request, I was tagged by @loripop326 http://shesawake.com/2010/04/10-movie-facts-about-me/ to spew 10 Movie Facts About Me
10 Movie Facts About Me
10 Movie Facts About Me
1. I see few films; I am so far behind it is embarrassing (but really, who the fuck cares? This post is just for fun). I enjoy movies on the big screen, but would rather play outside. Plus, I don't have discretionary funds to support my desire to attend. ugh. I saw ALICE IN WONDERLAND, this year. Before that, was JULIE/JULIA and before that, BORAT. ...enough said, except to say, I liked them and was rather entertained.
2. The most influential film on my life is MONTY PYTHON and the HOLY GRAIL. I honed my disdain for organized religion and grew a strong belief in the separation of church and state. I have seen this film a couple dozen times, maybe more. Because of the British accent, the first dozen viewings was to listen and hear what the fuck was being said. Beyond that, I enjoy this film because it is so hilarious to me, that I laugh through every scene, every time. This is my favorite film. I often annoy or amuse my friends when I recite lines from this movie, when I deem pertinent to the conversation.
3. I miss Gilda Radner. GILDA LIVE is an awesome film of a live performance of Gilda's strong characters. This film amuses me each time I see it and makes me cry, because I miss her talent and because of the song at the end when she sings, "Honey" (Kiss Me With Your Clothes On). Also, "Let's Talk Dirty To The Animals" is fucking hilarious, to me. "Fuck you Mr. Bunny. Eat shit, Mr. Fox. Tell a chicken, suck my dick and give him chicken pox." Oh come on, you know that is funny. I love this film!!
4. HAROLD and MAUDE. Oh fuck, I love this film for the irony, the social messages, the humor, the angst and the sound track. Ruth Gordon, oh my! I miss Ruth Gordon. When she sings Cat Stevens, “If You Want to Sing Out, Sing Out,” I sing and dance along, and copy her hand gestures. I want to go out like Maude does in this film.
5. THE SOUND of MUSIC. I love the music, comedy (despite the serious story of those awful Nazi people), and the cinematography. I have seen this film many times over my life time. I will watch it again. "But it doesn't mean anything." This is my favorite line in the film.
6. THE WIZARD OF OZ. You know, everyone likes this film. The witch still freaks me out, but I feel angst and admiration for Margaret Hamilton, having to play such a role and wear that awful witch make up. Once I tweeted with others throughout this film when it was on TV. That was so amusing to me. We comforted each other during the scary scenes.
7. HIGH FIDELITY is another favorite film. John Cusack, I love his work and I have a thing for him, which has lasted since the mid 80's. The story is worthy, the characters are entertaining. Jack Black's character is a pain in the ass, but it moves the story along. The soundtrack fits well and is one I listen to, still. And, it is a love story. And Oh, LOVE STORY is another love story movie I love.
8. UP IN SMOKE. Oh, hahahahahhahhhhaaa Yes. I love this film too. It had a timely influence on my youth. I also still enjoy the sound track.
9. SHORT CUTS. Robert Altman was a genius working with other brilliant people to create this film. The story, ensemble cast and sound track entertain me. The twist at the end, the perversion, the violence, the angst throughout this comedy, sticks inside my head of how not to behave. Not like I behave like any of these characters in any way, but it is a reminder none the less. The story is over the top, but then again, some people are so fucked up. Also, Raymond Carver is a favored author and Short Cuts is based on his writings.
10. I do not own a DVD player. I'm not proud, just poor. So, as I dug through my VHS bin, CORINA CORINA, WATERWORLD, YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN and WILLOW jump out as four films I enjoy, that entertain, make me laugh and feel something. And, those are reasons enough to watch these films, these movies, again and again.

Unemployed
“Not to decide is to decide.” - Harvey Cox
I want to work, really I do.
I want to be in charge, but they won’t let me.
I like not working, it just doesn’t pay well.
I’m a free spirit in search of a job thingy.
I’ve learned only what it is I don’t want to do.
I don’t want another dead end job.
I have a challenge finding work since I don't like the way that it works.
I’ve been fired so many times, I don’t want to work.
I have done every job possible, given my limited skill set.
I should work for myself. Doing what? Everyone is already doing everything.
I’m coasting, making wishes.
I wish my wish list wasn’t so long…
I’m about to lose the best gig I ever had (unemployment).
I give up
the end is near
Can't find a job
to save my rear

more Four line Jenny Poems
You have to wait
You must not worry
I'm running late
I'm in no hurry
I am wild
I confess
You are freaky
You digress
I am able
You are Mable
We have dinner
At your table
I'll bring foil
You bring paste
We'll build our dreams
Upon the waste
The table is yellow
The chairs are white
The beer is amber
The colors are light
You lift my spirit
I give you shit
You want my soup
I let you sit
I have a big butt
Thanks to Dad
My eyes are blue
Tho, I'm no Ladd
If I'm an apple
and you're a peach
I'll peel your grape
to appease your reach
I lift you up
You drop me under
You pull me down
I push you over
Are you smarter
than the hype?
I'll give you info
the story's ripe
I give up
the end is near
Can't find a job
to save my rear
I want to know
how we exist
I want to blow
You can't resist
You must not worry
I'm running late
I'm in no hurry
I am wild
I confess
You are freaky
You digress
I am able
You are Mable
We have dinner
At your table
I'll bring foil

Morning
Morning is the time of day
to get stuff done, sleep in or goof off
Mourning is the time I spend
feeling sadness over something I cannot change
I'm in mourning every morning
when I don't want to get off my bed, but must
to get stuff done, sleep in or goof off
Mourning is the time I spend
feeling sadness over something I cannot change
I'm in mourning every morning
when I don't want to get off my bed, but must

Four line Jenny poems
Never the coach
Never the mentorEver the athlete
Ever the inventor
We stroke each other
We are bright
We are nervous
We delight
I can love you
I can write
You can love me
With all your light
I can’t find you
If you hide
I can’t want you
If you guide
We can balance
We can ride
We can dance
We can slide
I like beer
You like rye
I will try yours
You will comply
If you doubt me
I will listen
If you question
I will glisten
I will dust
If you mop
I will love you
If you flop
The music moves us
Silence removes us
Bird songs intrigue us
Our voice relieves us
Fuck is good
Cunt is confusing
Shit is bad
Is there a point? To this?
Some jokes I do for you
And some I do for me
What I do for you
I do for me
I want more
You want less
You want someone
I want Tess
I don’t care
You know that
I risk freedom
You can’t bat
We’re getting close
The edge is near
We have no map
The ledge is fear
I can tell you
The beer is fresh
We trust garlic
For our flesh
You fold your hands
I told a story
You question sands
I told you glory
Kiss me now
Kiss me later
I am willing
To be your waiter
