life

(or i like heroin and heroin likes me)
i saw bob dylan and patti smith
that name brings a reaction knees sag
eyes roll
waists ribs giwayslightly to one side or the other
sighs
and she, apart
reacts
in response to their reaction
but looking to me

Editors of the Urban Dictionary recently chose to publish Skanky Jane's definition of: "street skank"
street skank
One who frequents and/or is an inhabitant of "the street" -- that is, a "skank" who lives, or is often seen, in "public" spaces. The term, which is used, predominantly, to describe a woman or girl, can then, apply to one who is "homeless" and/or (especially) one who is a street-based sex worker.
As a term used to describe (or "name") an individual whose employment is that of street-based sex work, whether that individual is homeless or not, "street skank" is often used in an extremely derogatory manner and, importantly, its denigrating meanings are additional to those implied by "skank": i.e. one who is often considered disgustingly foul, filthy, and sexually "promiscuous".
Some women who perform the service of street-based sex work have however reclaimed the term -- in much the same way as "whore" has been affectionately reclaimed by many sex workers in general.

It is written that the act of clearing your physical space has a comparable effect upon your internal space; chucking all that crap that you haven't sighted in a decade can have significant psychic resonance.
Using your material dustpan and brush mysteriously invokes its virtual doppelganger: an interior Hoover that rids you of all those familiarly patterned cobwebs and heavy debris - making room for... more bullshit ...or, hopefully, change. So... with this idea in mind, I went a-rummaging amidst my trashy corners the other day and ended up tossing the great majority of the crap I found there - out.
This rather liberating process pared Skanky Jane's Ruses of Pleasure down to a mere 13 or so posts which might be considered tolerable. And the change? Well, for a very long time now I've had sweet fuck all of interest to say or write - but in future, instead of transcribing screeds of vacuous, mental vomit for the purpose of publishing it on this blog - I'll be leaving it out. You see, I've come up with the revolutionary notion of keeping my personal journal - personal - and offline. After all, the internet is a great place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there.
But never fear, my soul saving and multi-talented BBox crew will continue to update the BBox - and I'll continue to show-off all of my great stuff at Found in Pockets. In the meantime, while SJRoP pauses, I'll be stepping out - beyond the front door - in search of real time, flaneusial pleasures.
Remember, wont you friends - if you see me out and about - to Give a Skanky Jane a Break?

me me meme
While chewing, who better to consult on the subject of bodies and stuff than Mayhem? So, after chancing upon Lucazoid's self-imposed challenge and Chris' Net neologisms, and still seeking flesh, I found that Mayhem had been pondering a topic related to change and the Net - having come up with a great question: "Just how viral is the bloggosphere in 2008?" In order to pursue this question Mayhem posted a meme - tagging six other bloggers in order to observe its spread - or stasis. Therefore, being one of Mayhem's (potential) contaminators, I've also posted the meme ....(see below).
Maybe you've been tagged too....?
Here are the meme rules:
Here are the six quirky - yet boring and unspectacular - details about me:

On the road again -
Just can't wait to get on the road again.
The life I love is making music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again.
On the road again
Goin' places that I've never been.
Seein' things that I may never see again
And I can't wait to get on the road again.
On the road again -
Like a band of gypsies we go down the highway
We're the best of friends.
Insisting that the world keep turning our way
And our way
is on the road again.
Just can't wait to get on the road again.
The life I love is makin' music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again.
On the road again
Like a band of gypsies we go down the highway
We're the best of friends
Insisting that the world keep turning our way
And our way
is on the road again.
Just can't wait to get on the road again.
The life I love is makin' music with my friends
And I can't wait to get on the road again.
And I can't wait to get on the road again.
