February 24, 2023 marked the day of my partner Mason's 50th birthday!
We kept it relatively low key. Celebrated with close family members and a sponge cake.
And oh yeah, some sushi, crudite, wine, whiskey and poetry.
She Is The Very Model Of A PXI Photographer

She is the very model of a PXI photographer
I doubt she’d choose the film job of an amateur pornographer
From Southwest AZ Tucson, CA Sac-Town geographical
West Middlesex to Pittsburgh too, this ain’t so topographical
Married a West Virginia Jew, it’s in her biographical
She has many temptations, some that may include her vaginal
Truth is colloquial serum she’s screaming that it’s not fake news
Her husband is an asshole with a lot of very
Different views

The Donald is her enemy, she’d never suck his mushroom cock
Her husband is agnostic, and ironically unorthodox
She votes for mostly Democrats but not the MAGA maniacs
Truth Social Trump is sore from his 2020 terrible loss
She hates Ivanka Kushner and her daddy clown who’s a disease
She isn’t joking when she says that Donald’s her worst enemy
She’s neither bum nor stooge nor bitch but is the one whom I adore
“By missile” is an anagram for Georgiann’s friend whom I adore

We sometimes fight when crashing shit and concerts in ways not the norm
Free tickets not their sale’s the matter why we don’t conform

In fact, Walmart blows but she’ll spend on Amazon to my chagrin
She sure knows wrong from right and is delightful when we’re travelin’
No longer in her forties, ‘cause big 5-0 is more
Scary n’at
And rarely speaks concisely it’s the reason why
She’s all of that
And now she’s teaching classes but they’re mostly introductory
We’ve learned so much about ourselves some call it self-discovery
Report, it to the channeling whenever there’s a tragedy
Always the best photographer I’m married to a G

The Pirates of Penzance:
Early 2000's, Randall L. Jones Theatre, Utah State University, Cedar City, UT
Utah Shakespeare Festival
A couple decades ago, I met up with my mother and father in Denver and we made the 14 hour trek to Phoenix. Along the way, we hit up Bryce (highly recommended) & Zion National Parks. And of course, a spectacular performance of Gilbert & Sullivan's Pirates of Penzance at a refreshingly unusual location. The campus of Utah State University.
Due to Mason's contempt for ex-President Donald J. Trump, a/k/a the Orange Prolapse, I've decided to include this particular parody in the Big Lie 100. Kinda curious to see if this post gets flagged for "violation of community standards."
Here's another version of Modern Major General. Quite possibly the best "introduction" in the history of comic opera. Seriously, if you can think of a better one... lemme know.
