It is I, Priestess Pisces, Queen of the Bunnyfishes that go POOK POOK
POOK. The Bi-polar, Bi-***ual who dares to hit on both Connie and Eris
AT THE SAME PARTY. I am the new living subgenius christbuddahprophet
wearing Sheer Pink Lipgloss because I am THAT secure in my mutantdom. I
am the rolling rumbling tumbling tidalwave of the slack trickle. I am
the alphaomegabetical ivangelicaholicaustal mirror of all that you
are(not). I am the beacon of darkness in the thousand points of light. I
am my own faith-based lack of initiative. I have seen in the bowels of
terror and this town needs an enema. I know the secrets, but you gotta
find the key, because I aint no book you can skim and put down mister,
and there is no rewind no fast forward and no regrets. Que Sara Sara,
Lezem gayne, and f*ck 'em if they cant take a joke.
