Streetcar... "contrasts rude honesty
and polite deceptions, marriage and
sisterly bonds, realism and pretension,
and drunkenness and hangovers.
Everything is crammed into tight
quarters, filled with cigarette smoke
and booze."

various males, from idiot guard to
denuded spouse, these festive floozies
attack the vulgarity and bad-acting

Women Behind Bars by Tom Eyen
Fifty brides flee their fifty grooms and
seek refuge in a villa on the coast of
Italy ... the fifty grooms catch up with
the brides, and mayhem ensues: the
grooms arriving by helicopter in their
flight suits, women throwing
themselves over and over again to the
ground, pop songs and romantic
dances, and, finally, unable to escape
their forced marriages, 49 of the brides
murder 49 of the grooms—and one
bride falls in love. About the same
odds as today.

The Day It Rained Forever by Katie Rubin and David Beatty
"Create a tiny space, a tiny place
To experience grace
It’d give us just enough faith
To wake up
And face
The fact that today
Leads straight away
To another gray
Tomorrow"

know my body will no longer stand
between me and the endless
possibilities of this universe."
