Sexual McCarthyism returns to NYC & Lower East Side

I am not going to break the news about more sexual McCarthyism to hit NYC and this specific case the Lower East Side targeting unfairly the fairer sex.  Why am I not telling you?   I want to so badly.  Because I am pretty sure this is heading to court so it is a wait and see attitude before I tell you anymore....

The only safe place to see, think and about sex maybe the Met Museum.  See posting below this one and how ironic for many reasons including sex is used to sell just about everything and Hollywood resembles porno more and more and porno is going more mainstream so go figure. Most startling is advertising starting with the Brooke Shields Calvin Klein ad campaign way back when...truly disturbing but that made it to main stream television.  Very odd the double standards and there are so many....Also if you are rich and usual male you can get away with just about anything....or it feels that way...

Along with so many infrastructure collapses including Wall St., economic meltdown, mortgage mess it seems that sexual freedoms are crashing as well.

Welcome to the new hideous New York.

p.s.   He was a genius and he has a short story about a society that is anti-sex and anti-aging.

Metropolitan Musuem

Leave it to this sculpture to interpret Greek Mythology.  I wish I could make him come to life.

Visited the Metropolitan Museum today and of course I always stop by and visit this fellow but I can't never get his attention.

Hey Perseus!!!!!

  

Anna Lise of Yoga Face book fame has a beautiful baby this morning!!!!!!

So happy for her and her husband, Anna Lise gave birth to a baby girl this morning.
Certain parts of my body have been feeling HUGELY sympathetic.

Based on my cycle the guys in the neighborhood are safe but it is hard seeing all these babies everywhere and not having one!
I get these extra intense urges which is surprising at my age.

I am tooooooo tired and this community crushing development has wiped me out so the reality is no babies unless I have a late in life surprise and I have the energy, money and love and support to go for it. Just thinking about it this morning makes me tired.


So happpppppppppyyyyyyy and I can't wait to hold the baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SBT thermal photo on my way to donate platelets, thinking karma and other NYC issues

Yes I resisted Apple all these years but despite their mega chain mega stamp I don't like it was worth throwing out my Dell and converting because the tech is superior and the support is even more amazing.

I still don't have Time Warner which means no internet and tv.  

I am still experiencing the new little development I am living in.  What is beautiful about it is "very" but I can see the rush to build in every nick and scratch on almost every surface of my home.   I can't bare the noise of construction and the site of cranes which is inescapable and I just pray no more people are injured or hurt.   

Going to donate my platelets.  I still can't find so many things that are scattered about including my wire to connect my camera so I will photograph my platelet donation on my iphone.  I just hope my blood donations go to good souls, people that really appreciate the effort because it is an effort for me.

ps    Can't find my bad boy calendars -- I am confident the ones I use to bring are still safe in storage but it looks like the other half are gone...lost or stolen is my new term...under the stress and duress of moving.

feeling the heat despite the hot weather

hot day and pollution hangs over the entire city like a big dirty sweater
still
I think
of something even hotter but more wonderful
ex lovers
fiery
no lies or economic ties
just fire in the best way
as in passion
recycle
happy memories
in my mind

Suzannah B. Troy, Lotus land healing from trauma, reposting my poem

I am reposting my poem because I feel like a Viet Nam Vet having a flash back...have to calm myself, breathe and walk.   When I make a reference to Lotus Tattoos, that is a reference to my beloved home aka East Village and Barbara Carellas who wrote Urban Tantra, a muse for  lost tattoos in my poem.     She and I are mentioned in the new piece by my best friend being published soon on line about sexual empowerment so I will let you know....

lotus land healing from trauma
lotus,

lotus tattoos,
now I see lots of lotus, not tattoos or flowers just cars,
lotus symbology spirituality,
east coast LA with no public transportation
I want to make it up this hill on a bicycle too big for me, I worry the hill is too big for me,
I doubt my self, a Bentley speeds by me though the speed limit says 30,
I make it up the hill despite my lack of confidence.
i walk, lotuses bentleys, ferrari convertibles pass me by,
because I am doing something shockingly radical I stand out
far more than the ultra status symbols,
I am walking, walking, people wave, flash their lights,
some stop and ask if I need a ride, some ask for directions
but I don't know because I am not from around here.
Just recovering from trauma, just recuperating
good people have given me shelter...I am resting, I am eating,
I am walking, I am healing.
