"Honorary Woman" - Real Life Heartless Bitch
Dear President HBI Most Honorable:
I would like to plead my case as a meritorious candidate for
a Heartless Bitch. Yes, I am fully aware of certain difficulties,
as well as related opportunites (the upcoming Auxiliary); nonetheless,
I believe I would make an exemplary Honorary Heartless Bitch and
further the Cause with an admirable Signal-to-Noise Ratio.
I operate a website covertly designed to teach the world a
very difficult to remember, spell, or pronounce femme name.
This site is actually good enough on its merits as to serve
(1) admirably -- it was even launched on 8 March 1996 and it
boldly advertises the "International Day of the Woman" connection.
Quite apart from (1) - and (2) - the Agnieszka's Dowry site
gives a much needed forum to good writers -- many of them women,
to freely espouse and show all the qualia HBI sincerely stands
for.
I was pronounced Honorary Woman on rec.arts.poems a couple of
years ago by a Woman, indeed, a Woman of Color -- they
say, Crimson, but to be perfectly honest, sure looks Maroon to
me -- as in Harvard B.A: Jenni Merri Parker is an artful
and fresh-sounding rhymist and a strong woman from Mississippi
hinterlands (see Agnieszka's Dowry). She's cool.
Even though I have not posted on rec.arts.poems for over 6
months, a certain voiciferous subset of regulars, heretofore as
per David Deifer,(publisher of CrossConnect, who is sleeping in my living room), to be referred to as "fuckheads", are jerking
each other off in a cock-o-phony feverish disharmony keyed to
rip me a new virtual asshole. Why? Of course you know:
Precisely because I am and have been a lighthouse, and lit
houses attract wrecks, a de facto:
Heartless. Bitch. tres Internationale.
Yes! I want to Read about more "Real Life Heartless Bitches"
