Anne Sexton "Menstruation at Forty"

I was thinking of a son.

The womb is not a clock

nor a bell tolling,

but in the eleventh month of its life

I feel the November

of the body as well as of the calendar.

In two days it will be my birthday

and as always the earth is done with its harvest.

This time I hunt for death,

the night I lean toward,

the night I want.

Well then"

speak of it!

I was in the womb all along.

I was thinking of a son . . .

You!  The never acquired,

the never seeded or unfastened,

you of the genitals I feared,

the stalk and the puppy's breath.

Will I give you my eyes or his?

Will you be the David or the Susan?

(Those two names I picked and listened for.)

Can you be the man your fathers are"

the leg muscles from Michaelangelo,

hands from Yugoslavia,

somewhere the peasant, Slavic and determined,

somewhere the survivor, bulging with life"

and could it still be possible,

all this with Susan's eyes?

All this without you"

two days gone in blood.

I myself will die without baptism,

a third daughter they didn't bother.

My death will come on my name day.

What's wrong with the name day?

It's only an angel of the sun.

Woman,

weaving a web over your own,

a thin and tangled poison.

Scorpio,

bad spider"

die!

My death from the wrists,

two name tags,

blood worn like a corsage

to bloom

one on the left and one on the right"

It's a warm room,

the place of blood.

Leave the door open on its hinges!

Two days for your death

and two days until mine.

Love!  That red disease"

year after year, David, you would make me wild!

David!  Susan!  David!  David!

full and disheveled, hissing into the night

never growing old,

waiting always on the back porch . . .

year after year,

my carrot, my cabbage,

I would have possessed you before all women,

calling your name,

calling you mine.

Anne Sexton "Live"

Live or die, but don't poison everything…

Well, death's been here
for a long time -
it has a hell of a lot
to do with hell
and suspicion of the eye
and the religious objects
and how I mourned them
when they were made obscene
by my dwarf-heart's doodle.
The chief ingredient
is mutilation.
And mud, day after day,
mud like a ritual,
and the baby on the platter,
cooked but still human,
cooked also with little maggots,
sewn onto it maybe by somebody's mother,
the damn bitch!

Even so,
I kept right on going on,
a sort of human statement,
lugging myself as if
I were a sawed-off body
in the trunk, the steamer trunk.
This became perjury of the soul.
It became an outright lie
and even though I dressed the body
it was still naked, still killed.
It was caught
in the first place at birth,
like a fish.
But I play it, dressed it up,
dressed it up like somebody's doll.

Is life something you play?
And all the time wanting to get rid of it?
And further, everyone yelling at you
to shut up. And no wonder!
People don't like to be told
that you're sick
and then be forced
to watch
you
come
down with the hammer.

Today life opened inside me like an egg
and there inside
after considerable digging
I found the answer.
What a bargain!
There was the sun,
her yolk moving feverishly,
tumbling her prize -
and you realize she does this daily!
I'd known she was a purifier
but I hadn't thought
she was solid,
hadn't known she was an answer.
God! It's a dream,
lovers sprouting in the yard
like celery stalks
and better,
a husband straight as a redwood,
two daughters, two sea urchings,
picking roses off my hackles.
If I'm on fire they dance around it
and cook marshmallows.
And if I'm ice
they simply skate on me
in little ballet costumes.

Here,
all along,
thinking I was a killer,
anointing myself daily
with my little poisons.
But no.
I'm an empress.
I wear an apron.
My typewriter writes.
It didn't break the way it warned.
Even crazy, I'm as nice
as a chocolate bar.
Even with the witches' gymnastics
they trust my incalculable city,
my corruptible bed.

O dearest three,
I make a soft reply.
The witch comes on
and you paint her pink.
I come with kisses in my hood
and the sun, the smart one,
rolling in my arms.
So I say Live
and turn my shadow three times round
to feed our puppies as they come,
the eight Dalmatians we didn't drown,
despite the warnings: The abort! The destroy!
Despite the pails of water that waited,
to drown them, to pull them down like stones,
they came, each one headfirst, blowing bubbles the color of cataract-blue
and fumbling for the tiny tits.
Just last week, eight Dalmatians,
3/4 of a lb., lined up like cord wood
each
like a
birch tree.
I promise to love more if they come,
because in spite of cruelty
and the stuffed railroad cars for the ovens,
I am not what I expected. Not an Eichmann.
The poison just didn't take.
So I won't hang around in my hospital shift,
repeating The Black Mass and all of it.
I say Live, Live because of the sun,
the dream, the excitable gift.

Anne Sexton "Courage"

It is in the small things we see it.
The child's first step,
as awesome as an earthquake.
The first time you rode a bike,
wallowing up the sidewalk.
The first spanking when your heart
went on a journey all alone.
When they called you crybaby
or poor or fatty or crazy
and made you into an alien,
you drank their acid
and concealed it.

Later,
if you faced the death of bombs and bullets
you did not do it with a banner,
you did it with only a hat to
comver your heart.
You did not fondle the weakness inside you
though it was there.
Your courage was a small coal
that you kept swallowing.
If your buddy saved you
and died himself in so doing,
then his courage was not courage,
it was love; love as simple as shaving soap.

Later,
if you have endured a great despair,
then you did it alone,
getting a transfusion from the fire,
picking the scabs off your heart,
then wringing it out like a sock.
Next, my kinsman, you powdered your sorrow,
you gave it a back rub
and then you covered it with a blanket
and after it had slept a while
it woke to the wings of the roses
and was transformed.

Later,
when you face old age and its natural conclusion
your courage will still be shown in the little ways,
each spring will be a sword you'll sharpen,
those you love will live in a fever of love,
and you'll bargain with the calendar
and at the last moment
when death opens the back door
you'll put on your carpet slippers
and stride out.

catalan education sistem

In Catalonia there are different levels to pass if you want to be something in this life.

First as a kid you have to go to kindergarten from 3 to 5 years. Then you pass to the next level that is called school and you stay there the next six years of your youth. When you are twelve you enter into high school and it’s mandatory to finish it because if you don’t, you won’t have a title saying you’ve finished and there is when you have 2 options, or stay studding or going to work.

If you keep studding you have also 2 options, you can go to “bachillerat” where you spend 2 years studding a lot to prepare yourself to “selectivitat” which is a test to pass to university or you can go to “formació profecional” that it takes 3 years.

Going to university you have to study a “grau” for minimum 3 years. On the other hand we have masters which are optional and it’s because  the student can assume a high level about their specialty.

Finaly we have the Doctorat which is a maximum of 3, 5 years to study.

Super herheroes or antiheroes?

Nightcrawler is a member of a fictional sub-species of humanity known as mutants, who are born with superhuman abilities. He possesses superhuman agility, the ability to teleport, and adhesive hands and feet. His real name, Kurt Wagner was born with certain unusual physical characteristics, but his power of self-teleportation did not emerge until puberty but in the meantime he  grew up happily in the circus until he takes part of the Xman.

Elektra is a fictional female character who is a kunoichi (a ninja assassin) descendant of Greece. She was trained from a young age in the martial arts for her father being the best assassin in the world.

Revy is the main female character of the manga Black Lagoon who is good with weapons but no very nice with people. She is Chinese and grew up in NY being a killer from young age, therefore she enjoys killing her enemies and only rarely stops to negotiate. To sun up she is the main gunfighter of the lagoon company.  

SHAMELESS

Shameless is that show where you don’t think you get addicted and the week later you kinda wishing you were a Gallagher.

Shameless is an American black comedy-drama series which I love, but this American series is a remake of the British original series, which was canceled years ago. This American production is set in Chicago and although filmed in LA.

The series talks about the dysfunctional family of Frank Gallagher, a single father with six children, he is an alcoholic and drugs addict man who is not worried about what could happened to any of his children: Fiona, Philip (Lip), Debbie, Carl, Liam and Sammy. There’s another brother but is not Frank’s son. I talk about Ian who is Frank brother’s son.

Getting into the description of each character we have:

William H. Macy as Frank Gallagher, the father of six children. He is an alcoholic and drug addict. He  steals to survive. He is the biological father of Fiona, Lip, Debbie, Liam, Carl, and Sammy— but not Ian. He often spends most of his time cheating on the system and take advantage of others in order to get money.

Emmy Rossum as Fiona Gallagher, the oldest daughter of the Gallagher clan. She is attractive, intelligent,... All of the responsibility becomes hers. Though often exhausted by her obligations, she takes care of the family. Fiona sometimes needs to be reminded to look out for her own happiness and well-being.

Jeremy Allen White as Philip "Lip" Gallagher, the second Gallagher child. He was a straight-A student throughout high school. Despite his above-average intelligence, he's fairly self-destructive; he smokes cigarettes and marijuana, drinks alcohol, pursues casual sexual encounters with many girls, and even steals vehicles. Lip has had a few love affairs through the series, including Karen Jackson and later Mandy Milkovich. After Lip found out that Mandy hit Karen with her car, causing Karen to become emotionally and mentally challenged, Lip dumped her and after this decision he starts de college and being alcoholic like his father. He is the classic bad boy.

Cameron Monaghan as Ian Gallagher, the third of the Gallagher’s. He is Monica's but not Frank's biological child. He participates in Army at school, and is gay. Still under age, he enlists in the Army under his brother Lip's identity. At the end of season 4, Ian is diagnosed with bipolar disorder, a mental illness his mother Monica has been diagnosed with. He has had a few affairs through the series, the most intense and long-lasting with Mickey Milkovich, the violent and supposedly homophobic neighbor who has a relationship with.

Emma Kenney as Debbie Gallagher, the fourth Gallagher child. "Debs" is precocious, intent on making a positive impression, willing to cover for others. She is very mature in some ways and therefore has trouble making friends with people her own age. In her teen years, Debbie becomes more rebellious, disrespectful, and secretive, eager to finally have a boyfriend and lose her virginity being pregnant with one boy that leave her on her own with the baby.

Ethan Cutkosky as Carl Gallagher, the second-youngest Gallagher child who shares a room with older brothers Lip and Ian, who try to keep their more-adult interests from him. Carl is often in trouble at school for being a bully.

Liam Gallagher, the youngest of the Gallagher children. He is black, despite having two white parents. In season 4, Liam unwittingly ingests cocaine and is hospitalized, possibly suffering brain damage.

Shanola Hampton as Veronica Fisher, the Gallaghers' neighbor and Fiona's best friend and confidante; she is in a relationship with Kevin Ball.

Steve Howey as Kevin Ball. Kevin is the bartender and owner of the Alibi Room and the Gallaghers' neighbor and friend. He lives with and is in a happy relationship with Veronica, though he is technically married to another woman who previously left him.

Isidora Goreshter as Svetlana Fisher, whom Mickey Milkovich is forced to marry after she becomes pregnant with their son Yevgeny. A former prostitute, she later works at the Alibi Room and helps Veronica and Kevin take care of their twins. She marries Veronica to keep her residency in the United States and tricks them to sit the bar for herself.

Marijuana is legal in California

What is happening now a days if someone try something new? It becomes an addiction?

When in 2012 the state of Washington,  California, legalized marijuana for adults they didn’t know what would happen, but they realized what, that year teenagers started getting stoned because they thought marijuana wasn’t dangerous anymore and that happened because they were not well informed about the consequences of using drugs.

Many studies realized that “cannabis is just as bad as alcohol and of financial problems, cannabis is worse”

In conclusion the biggest problem with legalizing marijuana remains: How do we keep it away from kids?
