Reading Time: 3 minutes Having dipped her magic fingers into the lucrative business of music and fashion, former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham is now venturing into another domain that defines what it means to be human – sex.

Why Miss Piggy Made Me Love Feminism
Reading Time: 3 minutes There are very few women who have marked my life, but I’m not ashamed to say that Miss Piggy is one of them. It’s the way she throws her blond locks over her shoulders that gets me. Together with her penciled-in eyelashes, Miss Piggy is the living proof that women don’t have to wear tons […]
When Coronavirus Meets The Young Ones In Barcelona
Reading Time: 3 minutes I’m beginning to think that a lot of people, young people in particular, live on another planet and are unaware of what the coronavirus pandemic is doing to us and what it means.

Sorry Mum, I Think Dad’s Had Sex With Someone Else Again
Reading Time: 4 minutes You learn a lot of things watching television and reading newspapers.

Paris Local Elections – Muck, A Duck, And A Schmuck
Reading Time: 3 minutes There’s nothing quite like a French election carried out after a pandemic not caused by a rat, a tasteless online video, and a duck trying to gate crash Cyrano de Bergerac performed at the Comédie Française.

Eagle Of The Sky
Reading Time: < 1 minute The eagle of the sky, Asks the question why, To death, from birth, We don’t love the earth. Lost in the realm of fortitude, We miss the magnitude Of the Earth’s illness, Of our own madness. Run, rabbit, run, Not from the eagle, but from the sun. Global warming, The Heavens’ warning, It is not […]
The Departed
Reading Time: < 1 minute Forever in my heart and mind, You wander across the crystal lake, Happiness, you will find, Peace, you will make. I might be without you, You might have lost me, But time will see us through, And one day we will see, As everlasting entanglements of love, Continue to haunt us from above, Two souls […]
Nine Plus One Is Ten
Reading Time: < 1 minute I’m writing along, Singing this song, All night long. Number two, Tie up your shoe, Laces, We’re going places, With a puppet’s string, Just the thing. Three, four, Close the door, The puppet might escape, Sellotape, His box, And don’t forget your socks. Five, six, A box of tricks, At sixes and sevens, Up in […]
The Chrysalis
Reading Time: < 1 minute Looking into the future, I am frightened of the past, A fragile chrysalis, a butterfly that will not last, And yet you are stronger than the strongest girl, More beautiful than the largest pearl, Upon my shoulder, you search my soul, You fill me with fear I cannot control, And as you travel across the […]
