Little Tilly Tattle Tale and the Mean Men

Into every life must fall some rain, or                        so the blurb goes Imagine one seeping hurt though, from                       its head to its toes. No one pays enough attention, leans far                                      enough To really KNOW what she means, cause                     they're not enthralled. But she'll show them, blow them, whatever. Prostitution is good, gotta find some endeavor. Getting next to what she hates the most, just                         to kiss it. Like some starlet found in the rough, and                        polished on a couch Tiny Tilly comes to be Tilly the NARC,                                      Ouch! But she'll show them, blow them, whatever. Prostitution is good, gotta find some endeavor. Getting next to what she hates the most, just                         to kiss it.

Additional Notes:
Isn't it wonderful that the governments of our fair land provide niches for the pathological narcissist (who might otherwise plummet a little faster on their way to Hell?) And ladies, before you get your dander up, yes, I know there is a male counterpart to Little Tilly. But they're all elected public officials or prominant politicians and we already know them.

James, Simply delightful. The style lends itself so well to content. Yep, you have to suffer through another one of my possibly long winded crits, hope I don't ramble on too long. Frankly, I can not understand why any woman would take offense, the truth is the truth whether the subject be male or female, we all in some way prostitue ourselves for whatever reason; survival is the better of reasons, greed/fame/lust are not as noble. Governments prostitute themselves all the time it's just that no one ever says anything and if one does it is usually "off with his head". On the other hand, you have to hand it to someone to use whatever talents they percieve they have and then use them to achieve their own agendas. OK, OK, alright already....I'll hush up now. Best, Lora

James, I've known many ladies of the night and its sad. If people were taught and recognized their talents/their worth/contribuion to the whole. if they knew another way to feed themselves they would do different. When they have whoring jobs they turn hard. To be a 'rat' to save themselves is acceptable. They will do anything to con men out of money. Trick's are done by men also. We are such pathetic people. some married women/men are giving sex to have a family/money/prestige. sex is a form of payment. It spends well..... Good job.......you're well rounded. It's late or I'd ramble more. All I seem to know are dancers, whores and junkies....[not quite!] Sad, but they can change, just not easily. Dellena

Hello, again, James! You're title is a good kick off. I like it, and I like the irony of the piece too. (don't correct me please-irony is what I WANT to call it) Imagine one seeping hurt though, from its head to its toes. I think this short call to imagine is not enough. I need more discriptives to imagine anything yet. No one pays enough attention..leans (in) far enough. (enough enough...) To really KNOW what she means, cause they're not enthralled..........I don't think you need to yell.(smile) enthralled is a good word choice, but I also thought of 'enchanted' But she'll show them, blow them, whatever...Now you're talking... Prostitution is good, gotta find some endeavor.....hmmm..prostition offers some means to endeavor? Getting next to what she hates the most, just to kiss it...............ooo, awh....can I quote you on that? that needs to be on a bumpersticker, or a wall...... (~~ ~~~~ ~~~~) time passes, things change.....a little bit of foundation for the next lines. Like some starlet found in the rough, and polished on a couch (good....I hope this doesn't rub you wrong...I'm having fun with this) Tiny Tilly comes to be Tilly the NARC, Ouch! Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha....that is a great twist! I can't stop laughing.! Oh, and one more thing. (just for the fun of it)..there are certain to be some male prostitutes out there who will/have turned narc too! And like you said, we already know them?...no they can fool you too.... I am stunned. I like this alot. It's a great fun read. Thanks for sharing. PS I wonder who made bail first?

James I cant say I completely understand but that doesnt make it any less. Extremely well written I like the chorus am not 100% on the narc part To me yuor strongest part of this poem is the conversational way you start and maintain which made me feel welcome and included Cannot give you any criticism on this one really good job from where I sit. I liked this one more than mothman but I just didnt understand that one I will lok at it again later. mk

HI JCH.....you are in rare form, my friend! I guess everyone has their own niche...but it is true some need to prostitue themselves to find one that suits them best. Poor Little Tilly what must a girl do? Wyoming only has one senator...a female...republican. She is totally inept and not very smart....I'm not the only one that thinks that but for some unknown reason she keeps getting elected....just happened again for the 6th time. Her opponent was only 900 votes from beating her this time...but it might as well have been a mile. I think you just wrote a poem about her! I have to admit you do have a clever wit! Hugs....Marilyn
