The wolf woman’s wounds

Posted by: Ajapa on: November 1, 2009

A wound leaves behind a scar tissue
and a lesson for the instinct.
The scar tissue is resistant,
it guards the wolfish woman
and reminds her to be cautious.
She can’t be injured again
by the same methods as before.
The instinct knows.
Familiarity stirs the memory
and she remembers,
A seemingly harmless predator
the stealing of the soul,
the loss of the sense of self
the howling [...]

Blue Baby Blues

Posted by: Ajapa on: June 15, 2009

Now I wish I could write you a melody so plain
That could hold you dear lady from going insane
That could ease you and cool you and cease the pain
Of your useless and pointless knowledge
~ Bob Dylan, Tombstone Blues, Highway 61
Perhaps it’s Nietzsche or the futility of any sort of philosophy at all that has made [...]

Bluebeard has been modified by modern male stream narrators to warn women against their curiosities. But what Bluebeard truly celebrates is the innate curiosity of women and their instinctual insights. We’ve all been victims of many Bluebeards in our lives. We’ve ignored those “this is not right, I need to investigate more” hunches and have [...]

Wild Women in Tony Morrison’s Love

Posted by: Ajapa on: April 17, 2009

But then or now, wild women never could hide their innocence – a kind of pity-kitty hopefulness that their prince was on his way. Especially the tough ones with their box cutters and dirty language, or the glossy ones with two seated cars and a pocketbook full of dope. Even the ones who wear scars [...]

Wild forces yesterday

Posted by: Ajapa on: March 22, 2009

March 19 2009 Yesterday Evening
Last night the wild wolfish feminine force grumbled and roared. She flashed those electric glances and I told her I understood. I listened to her soul rumbling within her, distressed… and I understood how hard it was for her just to shed a tear. She had been left numb since the [...]

My women’s day

Posted by: Ajapa on: March 8, 2009

Today they showed women on the telly rallying, speaking out their minds and saying what men would define radical. I do that all the time. I remember telling a guy that ditched my friend that lesbians are much happier together… I speak my mind, do radical woman stuff all the time. So this year I [...]

God gifted

Posted by: Ajapa on: March 6, 2009

About two hours ago. Behold me standing at Pulchowk feeling extremely lonely after a perfectly enjoyable gathering/shopping spree with friends. I’m in the verge of tears and a million questions pop ino my head at once. Goodness if I could only stop thinking so much. Am I wierd? too weak? why am I so lonely [...]

Women In Employment… theory and reality

Posted by: Ajapa on: July 17, 2008

Its difficult for me to see how its difficult for women to push the realms of the domestic sphere are the back of her list of priorities and take up paid employment outside. Whether by social obligations or by choice, women I’ve seen are bound to small things like feeding the baby, doing the grocery, changing the cushion [...]
