The Blog Life

Clip To The Nail Cause The Hair Ain't Listening:
here's the way its gonna work: we bend spoons with our minds and STOP BLAMING poetry for everything. The sun is shining in Chicago and last night I dream Coney Island is a graveyard and I am asking everyone but what happened to the Cyclone? I have a fever. My facial explodes and no one notices. It's St. Patricks Day. And in Boystown we trade in Ed Hardy hoodies and for gold sequins, party beads and red-faced voice mails. This beautiful spray-tan sits down like a silk scarf descended from heaven at a bar patio table and sings Tupac like he is at the Houston audition of American Idol:All I need in this life of sin, is me and my girlfriend Down to ride to the bloody end, just me and my girlfriend.

I wipe the Dead-Reckoning off my face real quick and imagine the PowerPoint presentation for our apartment performance on authenticity. Perhaps it may include something like this:


Thank You and Welcome to The Blog Life. An experimental exhibition showcasing the authentic installation of famed .blogspot.com celebrities, ladies and gentlemen, Poetry's sweethearts: Hair/Nail Calle and Flip/Clip Molina. As your cab arrives, you will notice you are in the heart of what we here at The Blog Life like to call: The Thick Of It surrounded by a hearty metropolitan nightlife, a bevy of pseudo intellectuals, a non ironic Chick-Fil-A and only a ten minute walk to Target, WholeFoods, AdultVideo Mart Express, and the local watering hole wittingly named " Here Lies Flarf". As you approach the seemingly modest door you may smell an exotic wave of spices from tonight's menu: Rellenong Bangus. You know you have arrived. We ask that you make previous arrangements with your local small press and store your ego and poetic identities for the length of your stay here at The Blog Life. We also suggest the following list of items should be brought to make your experience here more enjoyable:

1. The last magazine you looked at. This will serve as your reference guide. In it you will find the answers to just about any question that may arise. We do ask that you refer to your magazine guide before posing a question to The Blog Life.
One mix cd containing at least 20 tracks that make you smile.
2. A photo of yourself at 7 years old and One at 17.
3. Four packs of bubble gum. We suggest Bubulicious Cotton Candy or Original Flavor.

* Please note at least Three years of LIFE experience required to attend residency at The Blog Life. If you've been "checked out" for more than 6 months, The Blog Life requires a ten minute short film describing your current state for evaluation. For a quick self evaluation example to see if you have checked out/ or given up: If you have worn sweatpants for more than one errand in two weeks- you have checked out and must submit a video for consideration.

We remind you that cellphones will not be used, any outside communication-as stated in your contact- will remain collaborative property between you and The Blog Life done through Skype or Google video-chat. Please be reminded that all interactions with the impossible will be recorded for performance archive purposes and to ensure your safety, we ask that you pay mind to the section in your contracts entitled: "TEN TIPS ON HOW TO TELL THE BLOG LIFE THEY LOOK CUTE WITHOUT GETTING CUTE".

The draft is rough but well with a few formulaic activities, a Salsa lesson, Nighlty Karaoke, Connect Four Hour including an array of classes offered in varies tantalizing subjects such as : " YouTube: An Investigation into the Informal"; " How Google Do You Feel Today?"; " How To Lose A Poem In Ten Days"; "A Brief History of Blogidation" and "Explorations In Optimism and Circumstance: The Science of Lady Gaga". I think we will do Just fine.
