I read a lot of 

blog posts every week. 

A LOT! 

So I'm going to start a new series 

here on She Who Seeks blog. 

Every Sunday, I'm going to feature 

my favourite Post of the Week

whichever post most amused, 

informed, entertained or moved me

during the preceding week.

My inaugural choice for 

Post of the Week is --

Drumroll, please!

Oh, fer gawd's sake,

to do the drumroll!

Wanna Know How I Got This Scar?

I got it from my surgery a few months ago 

to remove some early stage skin cancer 

but that's our little secret, okay? 

I'm gonna tell everyone 

who asks from now on 

that I got this scar during a 

knife fight in a lesbian bar. 

That'll boost my street cred!

And this is the bitch who cut me!

HRH's Call to Arms!

Hello, my faithful fans and minions.

HER ROYAL HIGHNESS THE CAT

here once again with you.

Every year, Rawknrobyn of 

Life by Chocolate: Robyn Alana Engel's Blog 

holds an Anti-Valentines Day Love/Hate Poetry Contest.

I MYSELF won this contest in 2018

with the following POEM OF GENIUS --

Roses are red,

Violets are blue,

Toms pretend to be Super Cat

But are really Pepe le Pew.

Ever since my VICTORY,

my JEALOUS, NO-TALENT HUMAN

has been ENVIOUS of my SUCCESS.

So this year she entered 

the Poetry Contest HERSELF

and against all odds, WON IT

with this DREADFUL piece 

of LEWD DOGGEREL --

A nip and tuck

Improves romantic luck

Helps you find a cute guy in a truck

And finally get that . . .

[Oops, word limit reached]

But THAT'S NOT the WORST OF IT!

In order to win the contest, my 

EVIL MACHIAVELLIAN HUMAN

CREATED and RIGGED an

ILLEGAL and FRAUDULENT

VOTING SYSTEM!

THIS CANNOT STAND!

I call on you ALL to JOIN ME

to OVERTHROW this 

TRAVESTY OF JUSTICE!

(Just let me put on my 

WAR PAINT and DISGUISE first, okay?)

JOIN ME, FELLOW POET PATRIOTS!

Also, HANG MIKE PENCE! 

He didn't have anything to do 

with this, I know, but I've 

always hated that jerk.

February Full Moon Altar: Venus and Aphrodite

To mark Valentines Day, February's full moon altar honours Venus and Aphrodite, the Roman and Greek Goddesses of Love, respectively. However, these goddesses actually have nothing to do with love, romance, hearts and flowers, let alone such concepts as marriage, fidelity and family. On the contrary, Venus and Aphrodite simply represent the raw, basic, primal sex drive which powers and perpetuates all of life. When Venus/Aphrodite enters your life, she is not always convenient, appropriate or respectful of conventions or expectations. Her power and intensity can equally fulfill your life or wreak havoc in it. She can turn your life upside down and inside out.

My Rare One bought me this little Venus de Milo at a kiosk in Rome's main train station when we were in Italy in 2008. The statuette of Botticelli's Aphrodite I bought years earlier in a gift store in Toronto's gay village. On the altar I have surrounded them with six Major Arcana "Lovers" cards from various tarot decks.

These are from the Gaian deck and the Legacy of the Divine deck --

These two are from the Daughters of the Moon deck and the Light and Shadow deck --

And these final two are from the Morgan-Greer deck and the Runic Tarot deck --

The passion-red heart-shaped plastic altar cloth, valentine gift ribbon sidebars and little gold candles all came from Dollarama. No expense was spared, LOL!
