Duhamel, Denise "Kinky"

I really enjoyed reading this book and i found it a really easy read. The poems sometimes got tedious but for the most part I truly enjoyed the book. My favorite poem would have to be "Barbie Joins a Twelve Step Program" it gives a version into the fact that even Barbie has bad days the opening of the poem or exert is hiliarious.

Barbie is bottoming out,
she's sitting on the pity pot. She hasn't the know-how to express
any of her emotions. Before she even gets
to her first meeting, she takes the first step, admits
her life has become unmanagable.

I found it funny to compare barbie to a actual human who is having problems "managing their lives" I guess I just feel good knowing that even somone as "PERFECT" as Barbie can have problems and needs help every once in a while. (lol)

  1. It is good to know that even Barbie has every day problems and even more severe problems. Makes our problems seem somewhat normal.

  2. Yeah in the bigger scheme of things I do feel a tad bit more normal than usual :)
