Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for May 01, 2021

When the tilt o wheel is at full speed, you loosen the screws.

mirror mirror on the wall

“Your red scarf matches your eyes…”

Your left bra strap has sprung.

CLASH OF THE TITIANS.

BUT CAN YOU CATCH THE CLAP WITH 1 HAND?

Keep it up and my slap will clash with your cheek.

I, a Male Feminist™, will interject myself and make a performative statement about how unfortunate it is to see women undermining each other.

You are welcome, ladies.

(I’m single, by the way)

And, it is not getting the better of the disagreement.

…fashion is so fickle…

…what clashes one minute might be new and innovative the next…

…look at your old pictures…

…can you believe you wore that with that?…

…some people stay with the same haircut…

…forever & ever amen…

…others short on the sides one cut…

…next time long in the back- but not to long…

…is scent fashion?…

…besides Axe body spray?…

…well….

…everyone wears a uniform of one sort or the other…

…beep beep…

Tit For Tat Cat Fight …!

The woman on the right preemptively struck—she took straight to the top of the hill. Nicely played.

It’s a wonder my parents never put a note in my lunchbox about the conflict of my face. I’m the fifth of ten kids … I’m sure they never noticed.

As Vlad would say- Sorry your face clashes my fists with.

Everything clashes with your face when you are a punching bag.

After the Mud Match that followed, this Cat Fight ended more of a uniform color.

The jealousy lingered on, however, finding news ways of expression….

I haven’t the Grace® to face this exhibition.

Gonna need some aloe vera for that burn, Ma’am.

Release the Karen!
