Inside Scoop

While I was living in New York, I was a massage therapist. I had many private clients. The kind I could write a short story book about. There was no danger, that I knew of. But, the levels of eccentricity, thought processes that could conjure kinesthetic oddities, and a sundry of virtually moronic mundane task sequences which still led me to question my own choices…after…when I got home and stared straight ahead and wondering am I penetrating real flesh and bone or something acrylic-ally alien? Meet Lady Hill.

❀ LADY HILL

A visit to Lady Hill

Who lives on the Flats

Banking on her Goodwill

Tenuous, her familiar, her Cat

Gorgeous, with a chill

through a house big with Blue Eyes empty thrill

Elements of a shrill

Blonde curls stiff in place

Grins so-happy day and night with a pill

Plastic Couch free of spills

Under musty it is filled.

Worn-down from her preaching

Pliant praying angels seek Advil.

Seems her frame, small and frail

Like a Boa

Stepping down her Gloria Swanson’s stairwell

She holds tight to the rail

Panting crooked and pale

Close-up on her deep scanty grooves

from her finely painted nails

marking her trail

An amazon of ill-will

on the last of her attempt to inhale…

Don’t buy it

Just read the braille.

We all get what the ‘Grind’ means, but I wanted to capture the feeling. In all areas of life. Tell me if you feel the pressure building and then freeing, but only momentarily…and then beginning again, without any certainty of relief.

Never Getting Enough Of What You Don’t Really Want

Never get, Never Getting Enough…of what you don’t really want. Never get, Never Getting Enough…of what you don’t really want. Never get, Never Getting Enough…of what you don’t really want.

While racing to hold the sky

I was blinded by instant treasure

Reaching for the greener side

Fell into egos empty pleasure

Never getting, Never getting enough of what you really don’t want

Ohh, ohhh

Never getting enough of what you don’t really want.

Never get, Never getting enough of what you don’t really want

Ohhh, ohhhhh

Never getting,Never getting enough of what you don’t really want.

Ohhh, Ohh

Never Getting….Enough of what you

Don’t Really waannnnnnnnnt ___

Bridge

I followed the shine

Found memes so dismal

I followed the rules

Got cut in miles of tinsel.

Never getting

Never getting…..enough of what you….really don't want.

NGEOWYDRW features lyrics written by Laura La Sottile, who also serves as the song’s primary composer, lead vocalist, and pianist.

WOMEN

We know this.

We’ve heard it all before. And yet, we must be reminded to stay vigilant for our younger sisters. Promises made for an enhancement to lead to an enchantment, often an erasure leads to a fracture. So easy to slip in the gown of distortion -to ground breaking proportions. Plus you’ll only attract the jerk that can only rob you of your best abortion, [him!]

Contortion into someone else’s idea of who or what you should be. The illusion was that you would be happier if you did it their way. In forfeiting what you know is right and true for you personally, you give away your power. It is time to take it back.

GLAMOUR PUSS

Flash and Flare

Glitter and Glow

Much too fast

Too little too slow

I see you are low

‘Cause you think you’re a Jane doe

But that promise you seek

Is a thief of your mystique

Glamour Puss

Glamour Puss

So you want to be new

On a trail you think is tried and true

And you’re puckered up

But you’ll finish runner up

Glamour Puss

Glamour Puss

This may sound cavalier

But its a tint I cannot cheer

And if your dignity is smeared

Oh you may disappear

Glamour Puss

Glamour Puss

Chasing the status quo

Is an avenue I know

WELL

It will always interfere

With what hold most dear

YOU

Glamour Puss

Glamour Puss

Flash and Flare

Glitter and Glow

Much too fast

Too little too slow

ALL this fussing, for no good how, and all necessary cussing can make a woman wild with a percussing vow!

Prologue

Eyes follow you to the light spot jackets rustling laugh or two, a stomach knot, shoes scuffling tables clank and clot. 💨

Verse 1

A dark little arrangement

Singing in a hollow dive

Manners are on the song list

On stage and in life will deprive

Highlights and low lights ambience of well-spoken jive

‘Cause the world doesn’t always know what to do with me.

Chorus

Too deep for shallow waters

Too wise for surface talk

Too attuned to the unseen

To keep on that walk

Lady- like, Lady- Like, Lady-Like Composure

Verse 2

A dark little arrangement

Chasing the run in your stocking

Legs like fancy folded napkins

Don’t come easy when the old self dies

Pretending to be solid not wise

‘Cause the world doesn’t always what to make of me.

Bridge

Longing for my place to be

When all along Mother Earth

Born, already gave me the key

But, the world does not always know what to do with me

But, the world does not always know what to do with me.

Verse 3

Too deep for shallow waters

Too wise for surface talk

Too attuned to the unseen

Misunderstood by the ones that mock

Lady- like, Lady- Like, Lady-Like composure.

Verse 4

A dark little arrangement

Singing in a hollow dive

Keeping my voice in the background, quiet

No more guessing that lie

I know the depths of my riot

No matter if the world doesn’t know what to make of me.

Chorus

Too deep for shallow waters

Too wise for surface talk

Too attuned to the unseen

Misunderstood by the ones that squawk

Lady-like, Lady-like, Lady-like composer

Composure, Composure, Composer, Composure

Lady-Like, Lady-like, Lady-Like me!

The traverse up to the stage, is where a strange corruption tries to bend you. A red carpet of sorts, and all the while the integrity lies within us to make that walk transformative or swamp. Life is a comedic stage in tragic stages.

US women, we have a lot to CUSS ABOUT!

So here we are, doing our work and still no matter how many pickets we’re still fighting our way. Slapping the hands that grope. Letting go of the rope that limits. You have your dignity, your talents, your magnificent instinct…so what is your stage? Fatal? Or Transforming?

Welcome!

Big News: I’m taking back the mic! 🎙️🐚

“Friends,

I’ve been writing to you at FLYING BRA for a while now, but it’s time to add a little more noise to the revolution.

I’m thrilled to announce my new podcast: SHELL HATH NO FURY🐚

It’s about taking back the mic—trading passivity for active power through the things I love most: entertaining songs and stories. Think of it as dismantling the patriarchy, but with better melodies and a lot more laughs.

Check out the first episode here and let’s reclaim the narrative together—one high note at a time.” (And plenty of growly lows, because being ‘ladylike’ is overrated.) It’s one woman, a mic, and a few GarageBand Loops--at least until the rest of the band catches up.
