the cleveland poetry scene has been arguing about nick names for venues, so lady posted this on their bulletin board:
The *art* in vice is especially nice.
I get my slice in the paradise of life.
Everyone has an art.
Me, I have an Arthur.“Arthur?”
Arthritis.
We be diseased if we please;
let the plot be the foil.
not sure what it means, but it is ambiguously enigmatic, and i’ve always liked that in a woman.

i was curious about the cockroach song La Cucaracha, so i googled it:
La cucaracha, la cucaracha
Ya no puede caminar
Porque no tiene, porque le falta
Marijuana para fumar
The cockroach, the cockroach
Can’t walk anymore
Because it doesn’t have, because it’s lacking
Marijuana to smoke.
according to wikipedia, “The word can refer to the insect. It can also be used to refer to a person derogatorily by association with a cockroach. It has been used as an underworld slang term for marijuana, or a marijuana cigarette stub (whence the American slang term “roach” with the same meaning), or tobacco adulterated with marijuana, or tobacco adulterated with anything. It has been used as slang for a vehicle or a train car without any wheels.”
