all shook up
this morning i almost killed a man. it would not have been my fault if i had, but i would have blamed myself nonetheless. such is the human way. such is my way.
i don't want to recount the entire tale, having already told it one too many times today, so here's a simple equation to help you get the picture:
la nadine + motorbike + motorbike rider's bad judgement = CRASH!
ya dig?
suffice to say i have been quite the crazy woman all day, drifting back and forth between my temporary alter egos: 'jitterbug' and 'the zombie'.
last time i had a car ouchie i wrote a haiku in an attempt to deal with my intense anger through creative channeling.
this time i have no anger - the motorbike man was in fact a very nice young chap - but i have decided to compose another haiku for the sake of tradition.
here goes:
are you fucking mad?
that is not a fucking lane.
fuck fuck fuck fuck FUCK.
i think perhaps i'm a tad concussed.

Well that's gotta ruin your day. Hope you are feeling better.
hey you - hope you're feeling ok. i like the haiku! it's evocative at least.
I LOVE that haiku! LOVE IT!
Also - Red Betty Black? That photo of you with the ladyfriend? Hot. Very very hot. Looking good, sweetcheeks!
WOW, I write and say Haiku like that all the time, who knew I was that culturally talented?
Not before tonight. Jesus, be careful.
i know this is a bit weird but i see stuff like that as a warning to remember to slow down.
take it carefully. turn away from the jitterbug. you really don't want to let cotton down tonight.
if you start feeling sick and sleepy, go to a doctor
Concussed or not, you are an AMAZING poet.
I don't want this to go to your head... but you may well be the modern female Bob Dylan.
C'mon, Nads! Return to us!
