High School Musical Meets 2008 Presidential Race

Brainiac Barack
cheerleader Oprah campaign.
A Disney moment.

Gentlewomen’s lament

God rest ye merry
gentlemen? I don’t see them
lifting a finger!

It’s a wonderful life

Only if you’re not
the one doing the shopping,
cleaning and baking.

Protection

Soldiers wear helmets.
Women wear makeup, styled hair.
Our mode of defense.

Christmas lights

Like flickering tongues
of flame in green…blue…red. Just
plug in and enjoy.

VH1 shows

It’s the guilty splurge,
potato chips for the mind.
You can’t watch just one.

Picking Christmas trees

Like speed dating, if
they make a good impression,
they come home with us.

Survivor – Family Holidays

Two tribes – In-laws and
Parents – force you to over-
eat, then watch TV.

Thrill of the kill

Urban mall jungle.
Shoppers prowl for deals, fangs bared,
credit cards dripping.

J’s sense of style

She’d buy Free People,
match and mismatch carelessly,
revel in oddball.
