Default Because I am Femme #8

(Barefoot…jammies…pretzled up again at ‘puter desk…pissed, but slightly amused…)

Because I am Femme…I will not bend or break under any false accusations against me but will quietly stand firm in my femme power with my diginity and integrity knowing the truth will always come out…

Because I am Femme…I will not let you get away with your malicious gossip and backstabbing ways but quietly and serenely wait until the mudslinging is over and watch you wash it off…and hand you a towel…

Because I am Femme…You will NEVER bring me down…because I am stronger than you could have ever imagined and fearless beyond measure…

Because I am Femme…I have nothing to prove…nothing to hide…I am just me and I am an amazing femme…no matter what anyone thinks…

Because I am Femme…I will not back down, run away or hide…you have just made me stronger and better…THANK YOU!!!

(Laughing and shaking my head as I head out the door to enjoy the beautiful Fall day…with my favorite brown shitkickers on…)

Default Femme Rant


(Sits in bathing suit at desk in 94 degree weather hot and mad as hell…)

If you want a “woman with some meat on her bones” or a stereotypical voluptuous femme with big boobs, long hair, etc….

Don’t come knocking on my door…or try to steal my honey and then decide you don’t like the taste after all…

I am a lean mean fighting machine with curves for days that can kick ass
with my long flexible legs and wrap them around you and make you a puddle on the floor wanting more in a matter of seconds…I will match you beat for beat…

You say I show some weight loss in my neck and chest from all the life changes I’ve had recently and comment on that rather than focusing on what an amazingly beautiful neck and body I have to offer you…completely missing the fact that those are the places that would make me yours in a heartbeat…


Stupid stupid butch…get the hell outta my way…because you are getting in the way of a butch who’s coming after me who will see me just as I am and know I am a complete treasure worth far more than you ever could have or deserve…


(Pads barefoot out to deck to sun my skinny bikini self...feeling much more at peace...femme rant over)

Default Femme Taken

I know who are…

I bury my face in the shirt you left behind and close my eyes remembering your touch…our amazing time together…lost in you…
wanting you…but trying hard not too.

My heart twisted like your shirt in my hands…
Too soon… too much…too intense…
but so right.

The places I could go with you…the places I have already gone…

Who are you?
Who the hell gave YOU the keys to my sacred feminine vault?

Who do you think you are?

And patiently you wait…
keys in hand softly jangling…
unnerving me…
wearing me down…
with a knowing grin on your face…

Watching me struggle to figure it out…
Watching the others come and go…
Watching the walls of my fortified heart come tumbling down
Around your boots
And my heels…

You say to me…
“You are the woman of my heart and soul”…
How can that be?
When did you see?

And I follow your gaze down to the key…
Lodged in the lock…
Now set free

Default Femme Rapture…

There you are again…
in my bed with your sweet angelic boi-face…
nestled in the crook of your arm…
the covers strewn with jeans and lace…

So adorable…
I could stand for hours just watching you there…
Strong jaw, high cheekbones…short curly hair…
So handsome yet so beautiful…
So incredibly unique…
And into your soul you let me peek…
And In that moment…
I get a sneak peek…

Of a butch-boi man…
Of a woman in a butch-boi
Of constant struggle but no defeat…
Of acceptance and hard won joy…
Of my sweet butch-woman-boi…

Like a cherub full of grace…
with a childish grin on your impish face…
Halfway between sleepy and sound asleep…
You stretch and wait for me…
Aching for me even in your dreams
You reach for me…
You reach for me…
But still I stand against the wall…
watching you breathe…
The rise and fall…
Watching you…
Wait for me…
Struggling to stay awake…
For me…
with senses aware that I’m not there…
Quite yet…

Sleepy head, you rock my world with your soft seraphim lips…
Heaven’s music starts to play when you touch me with your
fingertips…
Heaven’s own music starts to play…when you lay me down…
Stroking the strings of your precious femme instrument…
When you lay me…down…
and gently remove my princess crown…

Boots

Default Femme Unraveled…( The Tapestry)

I’m supposed to be put together…been told I know how to do that well..

Yet I have so many loose ends going this way and that…

The man-child … a hot blue brilliant flame of strong satin ribbon…trying desperately to blame…

The ex …a worn black leather cord…it’s tightly knotted razor edges once loved and adored…

The lover…a sky blue silk string…deliciously wrapped so delicately in between…

The dog…a metallic soldered silver thread slipping carefully by
cheating death...

The job…a wiry rough jute rope… frayed and full of false promises and hopes…

The friends…a multiple strand of vibrant yarns wrapped round me keeping safe from harm…

The family…a soft and strong cotton blend allowing me room to grow and bend…

The Femme…a fierce fiery red silk strand carefully and intricately
sewn by hand…

All these loose ends somehow find their place

in their own interwoven interface…

It’s a mystery that even I sometimes cannot see…

But when I really look…

It’s a beautiful femme tapestry…

Default The Island Girl Series...(1/1/11-present)

Femme Geographic...The "Island Girl Series" #1

(Sitting at a desk in a cute studio apartment, on a rainy island in the middle of Puget Sound…hot pink fleece jacket, sheepskin slippers…pondering packing up…)

So I’m trying it on…for only for 3 months I said…
Moving from my cityscape home for the last 23 years
to your Puget Sound island where a ferry boat is the only way off and on…

Where 130 or so goats, 2 horses, 1 cow, 4 potbellied pigs, 7 sheep and a border collie are your constant companions…
And the smell of rotten feta cheese has a name:
Bart the buck goat-who you promise will not be around much longer…

You’ll live in the loft above the barn…
Which is the Taj Mahal compared to the “Twinkie”
Your 20 foot remodeled 1954 Airstream trailer that has seen better days and you…for the past 10 years…
sacrificing so much for your business that is now exploding…

I’ll live in a cute studio apartment close to the water…
With a loving lesbian couple 8 steps away…
My dog by my side…
Eagerly awaiting you and the promise of another front seat truck ride
and a romp on your 7 acre farm…

It must be love…
My dog says so…
It must be love…
I sure hope so…

It must be love…
My dog says so…
It must be love…
And I won’t know
Until I know…

And so I’ll go…

Femme Islander (I'm floating...) "The Island Girl Series" #2

(Sheepskin slippers and fleece again…sigh…sitting on a couch with Aisha…(tail wrapped around her nose)…gas fire burning in little loft above the barn…random animal noises from down below…)

Halfway between the water and the land I float…
Not knowing where I will land…
Between somewhere here and a ferryboat…
from some Seattle mainland…
to your peculiar I-sland…

I float…I swirl…like a small wave I advance…
I retreat…I advance…I retreat…perhaps I’ll dance…
Will I stay…will I go…where I’ll end up
Nobody knows…

Sitting now…greeting seniors at their center…
(where is center… my own center?)
A hug turns into a two-step twirl…
(I retreat…I advance…and I swirl..)
As a tall bent man sings “Mona Lisa”
(“are you real are you warm Mona Lisa…”?)
cataract filled eyes gazing into mine…
(even with my heels on…eye to eye…)

I retreat…I advance…perhaps I’ll dance…
Will I stay…will I go…where I’ll end up…
Nobody knows…

So I float like the ferryboats…
I swirl and I twirl…
Like a small wave I advance…
I retreat…I advance…
And towards center…
Perhaps I’ll dance…

Femme Exit "The Island Girl Series" #3

I can feel it coming…
That time…when I will leave.
I hate that…the knowing…
the waiting for that moment…
that day
the one that comes so
unexpectedly…
but when it does you knew it
all along.

See…
Right there….deep inside that protected vault
lies my femme heart…
(beating without fault)
Open enough for you to gaze in and marvel
(It’s design a brilliant cat’s eye marble)
To gently hold for a season
(not without reason)
To ravish it’s rarity and it’s reluctant return…
( and still I turn…)

Wishing I had what it takes to stay still
To offer you all with my own free will
to offer you all that you need…
But I bleed…
(See?)
I still bleed…
From inside out
(with silent shouts…)
Slow trickles now…
(coagulating now)
Scabbing, scarring, building…
(unyielding…)
but healing…
(yes still healing…)

See…
My diamond scales?
They’re breaking through
that new scar tissue…
refracting light beams
like the stuff of my dreams…
and like a dizzy disco ball
dancing against the walls
Spinning mirror facets
like an Elvis jacket…

Transformation
complete.

Femme Detour…(Recalculating Route) "The Island Girl Series" #4

There are twists and turns to every story and my life is
certainly no exception.

I can pick the coordinates, enter an address and *poof* there’s a construction zone up ahead and I hear that dreaded voice again…”Recalculating route”…

You know…the one that seems to say in an ever-so-slightly-disgusted- bitchy-impatient-tone…“You idiot…why the hell didn’t you just do what I said-you have a map, the route is clearly outlined, and PLUS… you have my lovely computerized voice to guide you….”

To which I cheerfully but disgustedly reply back with glee…
”Fuck you!” and choose my own path…while switching off my global positioning system.

There is something scary about that statement…but strangely comforting at the same time.

Anyone who knows me learns very quickly that while I have amazing intuitive gifts, I cannot for the life of me find my way out of a paper bag where directions are concerned. And nighttime driving?…let’s just not go there right now ok? Let’s just say that while I can give you spiritual direction and guidance, I will probably get lost on the way back home from your house. Sigh…it’s humbling really…

I get really impatient and tend to beat myself up about this frustrating embarrassing truth about myself. I do eventually …with practice, find my own way…and sometimes just switching off all of my external guidance systems (MapQuest, GPS, iPhone…) is exactly what I need.

In my last “Island” blog I was at the “Exit” sign…pondering not why…but how.
I’ve pulled off to the side of the road and am just sitting calmly waiting for different signs now…different guidance systems…and surprisingly when I get quiet enough and just simply stay still long enough,
I hear a different voice…a truth, a gut hit, that inner compass that
slowly starts to spin again showing me not necessarily the “right” direction to go in, but the best one FOR NOW.

I smiled when I realized I was “Recalculating Route” in my very own personalized unique way…and that it was simply…perfectly… okay. The voices that I chose to listen to this time were familiar…patient, loving and yes…sometimes admonishing, but always TRUE.

These voices are what I like to call “My Tribe of Women”
My Best Friend…who incredibly is so pure in heart you can palpably feel her Mary-Mother-of-God kind of love…
My “Spiritual Mother”…an amazing femme goddess whose wisdom, guidance and love I NEVER question or debate…damnit…she’s ALWAYS right!
My Best Butch Bud…who loves me unconditionally and just “gets” me, offering me her strength and wisdom with gentleness and no expectations…

They are amazing and I am so fortunate to have these women in my life. They are the earth to my air, the feathers of my wings…
They ground me and help me stay still just a little while longer…and never abandon me if I go off on yet another rabbit trail that has a “DEAD END” sign clearly marked at the entrance…

“Recalculating route”…yep… that’s not so bad…to turn a corner and not be where you thought you’d be…but not in a panic anymore.

I’m learning a little bit more about myself by standing still long enough to notice the birds again…the flowers and trees exploding all around me in a riot of color against this perpetually green wet rain forest, and a sky that stays light a little longer every day…with another tease of sunlight.

It’s an interesting thing riding a ferry boat…I used to panic that the damn thing would sink and I wouldn’t be able to get out of my car or get my dog out of her crate…now I just stay still in my car and relax as the boat slowly and calmly moves me forward…as it safely does hundreds of times each week, with graceful strength and dignity…

And I keep my eyes open…
watching and hoping…
to catch a glimpse
of orcas...

Femme Nailed..."The Island Girl Series" #5

I admit it…I’m a nail slut. In addition to being a shoe whore, I have come to the realisation that yes…I am….a nail slut. I adore getting my nails done. I’ve had that off again, on again love affair with acrylic nails, solar nails, and every vice in between…
I have finally just given in to this hedonistic addictive love affair once and for all-and even people around me are far happier, calling me such a girly girl…to which I just
*blush…and positively squeal with delight replying… “That’s RIGHT!!!” and show them my lovely nails…

My plan every year is to hold out until summer for the beginning of Pride festivities-
I like to look my femmiest for Pride…and the nails have it-in addition to my stilettos,
my tight jeans or dress…the nails just take me to that “whole ‘nuther level of femmeness“…I’m not sure why…I don’t ask, I just obey my inner Femme lioness who wants to have gorgeous sexy claws to scratch and…and….*ahem (jots down notes for ‘Femme Erotique’ piece…*wink)

Living on a small rural island in the middle of Puget Sound, you would think there wouldn’t be ANYONE who could A.) possibly do nails, and B.) do them well enough to my high femme standards. I about jumped outta my heels when I walked into Nancy’s nail salon and got one of the most beautiful full sets of acrylics I have ever had the priviledge of wearing. Most women know that Vietnam is the source of many amazing artistic nail goddesses, and Nancy is truly one of the best. She is middle aged, has a beautiful face and skin, with dark eyes framed by lovely tattooed eyebrows all partially hidden behind a yellow surgical mask-the mask of a
ninja nail master!!!

In between her broken English and rapid fire Vietnamese, she meticulously creates…and makes any woman’s hands and feet a thing of beauty. I told her this, and with crinkly sparkly eyes, she demurely said “Thank you”. Eager to begin, I sat down quickly at her tiny table and “BAM”…hit my knee…hard. She didn’t have any ice, and since I plan to wear a super short sexy thing for Pride next week…I ran out to my car and grabbed the next best thing to ice my poor knee - a “Healthy Choice” frozen entrée dinner. Yep…there I was…mesmerized by Ninja Nail Queen Nancy with one hand in hers, and the other holding my frozen entrée on my bruised knee….NOTHING and I repeat nothing was going to interrupt this sacred event…I breathed in the acetone fumes and started to feel my body relax…perhaps I was just getting high…who knows…but it was all good…really good…zzzzzz…

She smiled that subtle little Asian smile every time her eyes caught sight of the frozen entrée, and I can only imagine what she thought. When she finished, she instructed me to be “Vwery Cahful” when I began to extricate myself from her table…giggling a little under her yellow Ninja mask at me…watching this silly stilettoed girly girl with long gazelle legs carefully unfold herself and attempt to stand up without incident.

I paid her, and tipped her generously as a master deserves. We smiled and laughed with each other as I put the entrée in my purse, and I knew a bond had been made…my nails yes…bonded, glued, glistening and glamorous. But more perfectly…and more importantly…a bond of women…of cultures, and an unspoken appreciation for beauty and all things feminine.

9 Word Poetry Challenge
Mending, Treasure, Morning, Alone, fact, Soul, Love, Future, Hoping

“Stitched”

Morning comes,
And I’m finally alone
To ponder the fact
That my heart is still mending
From the tearing
And the rending
Yes
Still mending…

So…
Isn’t there some stitch-witchery
That will completely set me free?
To love again
To trust again
And yet
Again…

My heart is still mending
From the tearing
And the rending
Yes
Still mending…

So…(Sew it together now…)
My body you may pleasure
Now and then at your leisure,
But the fabric of my heart
To me is the real treasure…
And the resilience of my soul
Only I alone know…

So…(Sew it together now…)
I’m hoping for future love
That fits Mmmm…like a kid glove,
Hoping and coping with my
Heart that’s still mending
From the tearing
And the rending
Yes…
Still mending…
Morning Comes…
And I capture the sunrise
Shining in my eyes
And I realise
With quiet surprise…
That my heart is done mending
From the tearing
And the rending
Yes
Done mending,
Yes
Done mending

Default Femme Trebuchet "The Island Girl Series" #6



You’ve heard it all when finally faced with whether or not to take a real shot on someone…
“Aw…just take a flying leap!”…Just jump! “Gotta step off that cliff…
And one of my new personal favorites I’ve heard as of late:
“Flying is the best part of jumping…”…Ya…riiiiiight…..Mmmhmm.
Tell that to my shattered heart down there…oh and bring the broom & dustpan would ya? It’s right next to the superglue and duct tape-over there…

(*Big Breath….in and out slowly…eye roll for dramatic nuance…)

I've been kicking and fighting this…this whatever this has been for 11 months now…this THING…that I’ve had going with this BUTCH…person…thing…and NO …
(*synchronized mechanical clicking cog noises here…)
Don’t you dare call her my girlfriend! I’m not commited…not in love…never will be again…not like THAT…I don’t believe in that kind of love anymore…I’m DONE…do you hear me?
(*a loud KERPLUNK here….)
D.U.N. done! I love her,…but I”ll never be IN love with her or anyone else AGAIN…do you hear me?
(*low pitched enormous WHOOSH here….)
This is ALL you’re going to get-this is it, take it or leave it…and if it‘s not enough then TOO BAD!!!
(*High pitched whistling rocket sound here…)

*Cue music...Cyndi Lauper singing…“When you fall I will catch you…. I’ll be waiting…time after time…”

Damn…
she caught me…again and again…
she set me upright on my feet where I could dust myself off, look her in the eye and say with a steady killer glare…
“Why?”

Because I love you.
“No.”
Because I love you.
“No.”
Because... I LOVE YOU.
“Oh…”

I’ve watched her prove it
Day after day…
I’ve watched her walk it out
In her gentle way…
I’ve felt it (no one’s ever treated me THIS way…)
I’ve fought it
Please…just…just go away…”
No
“Why?”
Because I love you.
“So?”
I’m not going anywhere…
“Like I care…”(snicker)
Yes you do.
“What…?”
Care.
“Why?”
Because you love me.
(300lb stones hits castle walls and completely crumbles…)
“Oh…
Shit…”

For those military history geeks:
Trebuchet:

Another artillery piece that was similar to the catapult in mechanical function but appeared much later was the trebuchet. The first known trebuchets appeared in medieval Europe in the 12th century. The trebuchet is probably the engineering marvel of entire medieval period. Trebuchets were the only known exception to the rule that ancient artillery was technically superior to medieval artillery. The trebuchet was not only the engineering marvel of medieval Europe, but also, it probably hastened the end of the medieval period. It did this by simply ending the usefulness of medieval fortifications, or castles.

The primary difference between the catapult and the trebuchet was that the catapult used elasticity as its power source while the trebuchet used a counterweight for power. This was an advantage in earlier times when elastic materials were difficult to obtain. Another enormous advantage of trebuchets over catapults is that trebuchets did not have a stop position to the mechanism and this greatly reduced wear and tear on the machine. Counterpoise siege engines largely replaced the catapult by the middle of the 13th century.

Although nearly anything could be thrown by a trebuchet, the preferred ammunition was spherical stone shot that could be as large as 300-pounds, or 135-kilograms, according to modern estimates. The counterweight of a large trebuchet could be as much as 10 tons, or 9100 kilos, and the throwing end of the arm could be 50 feet, or 15 meters long. Some trebuchets had a hollowed out cavity to hold the ammunition while others used a sling. Slings increased the range substantially and it is believed that they had a range of at least 300 yards, or 275 meters. Another feature that increased the range of the trebuchet was the addition of wheels. It is believed that the trebuchet was remarkably accurate and it could do serious damage to fortifications of the period. Many of the medieval castle ruins attained that state because of the trebuchet. Small trebuchets were used to clear archers and crossbowmen from defensive positions.

Default Femme Rescued "The Island Girl Series" #7

If you’ve followed my blogs long enough, you will come to find out that my son who turns 18 on Oct. 27th has been shunning me for about the last 2 years.
He is a Christian fundamentalist like his dad, and he decided that since I wasn’t going to repent and turn away from my lesbian lifestyle, he had to fully shun me.
It means absolutely no contact whatsoever, and it’s been an excruciating journey for me to say the least.

As his birthday nears once again, I ponder sending him a card. Will he just destroy it or throw it away like he has me and our memories? I will send it this year regardless. It will be the first real attempt at contact from me, and I’m terrified but like a soldier going into battle for all the right reasons, I am committed to it.

I’ve been going through mothering withdrawal. I never thought that I would be ‘done’ mothering my son when he was just 11 years old, but that is essentially when he left me-when I came out 7 years ago. I have felt so many things, and bereft is a damn good word right now. It’s not like a death though…it is just torture because he is still alive and beautiful, winning national awards and basketball games as the star center of his high school team, starting to date for the first time, and so many other things that I simply do not know a thing about nor get to be a part of. I’m not sure I even remember some of his favorite things…and that grieves my mother’s heart.
He is still in contact with my parents strangely enough, and so I get this sort of window shopping feel to vicariously experience their brief visits with my son through a few pictures that he let them take of him.

With my own birthday around the corner, my girlfriend decided that I needed something to ‘mother’. Ok…..pick out a rescue she said…a small dog would be perfect for you-you can take it to work, travel in the car…yada yada yada…
Now one of the other things that you find out about me rather quickly is that I have a penchant for LARGE dogs…and….I have a rescued guard dog from Germany-a real working line German shepherd who is a rather large labor of love. She is my third shepherd and a fully trained, locked and loaded weapon that needs to be in a large 6’ high fenced compound where she is happy guarding her surroundings and not at risk of biting anyone but a nasty intruder. I cannot take her anywhere unless she is in her steel crate. Get the picture? I’ve tried re-homing her, but it just didn’t work out. Inside she is a complete goof and lovable couch potato, but outside…let’s just say that there are no less than 4 “Beware of Dog” and “Keep out” signs on the fence that surrounds her. You never know what you get with a rescue-that’s just part of the deal.

I’ve been depressed and weepy this month with both me and my son’s birthdays closing in upon me. Looking for ‘something to love’ is not exactly what I had in mind to chase my blues away. But…I began looking on “Adoptapet.com”. Ever since a Papillion dog named “Kirby” won the Westminster Dog Show for the first time in his breed’s history in 1999, I have loved this little “Butterfly dog” breed. (Papillion in French means “Butterfly” and pertains to the shape of their ears which look rather like butterfly wings.)
I started a search for papillions not sure of what I would find. I looked at purebred dogs who were hundreds of dollars and decided on another rescue-because that is what I’ve always done-rescued dogs.

I inquired about a few that I found promising, and filled out the necessary applications, with no hope or excitement. I wasn’t sure that after this hellish year of losing not only my son but my ex butch of 5.5 yrs to alcoholism I would even be capable of bonding with anyone or anything else.

We drove the 3 hours down to wine country in WA to meet this dog. His pictures were cute, and there was something about his expression that made me linger on his page. When we got there, we found a small pet grooming place out in the middle of the puckerbrush that apparently did a small rescue business on the side. I looked at the small yipping dogs scattered across an even smaller enclosure. I didn’t see him and as I kept looking I still didn’t see him…where the hell was he? Then I saw a little face peek out from behind the gal who sat in an office chair as she spoke to another couple about their new addition. There he was…my potential love child. Finally, she was done with the other couple and slowly handed him to me. I’ve only had big dogs in my life and I used to say that dogs his size weren’t dogs…they were toys. If you could sit or step on them…that was not a dog. I took him in my arms and with two licks to my face I didn’t care anymore. He was mine…and I wasn’t letting him go.
I embarrassed myself in front of all the other people who had come for their dogs by yep…crying.

I was so happy and all the pain of my son and of this last horrible year came out onto that little dog’s fur…and he licked my tears just as fast as I could cry them out. On the 3 hour ride back home, we bonded as we humans do with these creatures, that own us and master us faster than we can blink an eye and say what the f***? How they do it so quickly so effortlessly is just beyond me, and even after he escaped and took off running at a dead heat out onto 7 acres of land towards a busy street that had just claimed our rescue cat the month prior, I couldn’t’ stay mad at him. Even after we tried to get a working border collie to herd him back in, after he took on an 1800 lb Jersey steer- barking at this ridiculously large cartoon of a cow who looked at him as if he were a gnat buzzing around his hooves…I had to laugh so hard I cried again. With two peri-menopausal dykes screaming after him in a panic, we finally caught him when he stopped to eat cow shit-ah dogs…doesn’t matter the size…they still like to eat it.

I took “Leo” to work today at the senior center and of course he was a big hit…an 84 year old blind man who hardly speaks starting laughing and talking with Leo in his arms…and he brought a smile to everyone he met. I even put him in my oversized bag with his head popped out over the side and went into Target...breaking a silent vow that I had made to NEVER be one of “Those” women who did such a thing….I used to make fun of them…now I get it!
I’ve said over and over these last 3 days to everyone who meets him, “He’s a rescue, can you believe it?” What I know and now believe is that this sweet little angel with butterfly wings found… and rescued me.
