Our Una has a Terrible, awful secret That she won’t tell us. It tears at her guts And it makes her long for death. It can’t be that bad. Whatever secret She thinks will make us hate her, I can think of worse She should confide it to someone that she can trust So it won’t kill her. She can’t understand That we like her anyway. Past deeds can’t end that. Here’s a hug for you, A woman who cares too much. Anthracite’s my friend By the way, Una, Anything would make me sad. It wasn’t your fault. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by dropzone \* > **Our Una has a > Terrible, awful secret > That she won’t tell us.** Una hates herself Her body is hideous Why must it be so? Una is evil Or at least she feels that way Most all of the time Una feels trapped, and Can see no way out that will Not lose all her friends If Una tells it Then the mass witchhunt will start Flaming and hatred Pitchforks and torches She will be hunted down and Removed from the Board So Una will wait Until it’s too much to bear Then she will exit. No Pity Parties Just like a ghost in the fog She will disappear No e-mails, please, they Are not needed. Just a slow day at work. Ho hum. * * * Dumb fucking client I need a signed contract **now**! What is your problem? I must buy tickets Before seven days, or they Will cost a buttload Fax me the contract Or I will personally Flame your Spanish ass 😉 ---

Una— You can break my heart when you talk about yourself as hateful and bad. Again, you don’t know. You’ve given us no credit. We love and don’t care. It is difficult To impress us with evil. We have seen it all. Nobody you are (Unless you are Mark Serlin) 😉 Will get you thrown off. Look at the pictures From the last Chicago Fest. I am not Tom Cruise. But I get along. (Although I keep covered up!) I don’t hate myself. I wish you would learn Appearances don’t matter when your heart is good. We’re all virtual: Our bodies temporary, Our souls immortal. ---

Stoidela enjoys rat dogs and vintage porn sites such an enigma If "Fairy"ChatMom does not have pointy ears then her name doth mislead 😉 to Fairy Princess Kitty: If I did not have to pay college tuition you would get Eeyore Something to confess a secret that I have kept my snowball fetish Olentzero is a doper who makes me laugh once and awhile THespos does not seem to be a big fan of the things that squeak at night I do hope to meet Biggirl some day so I could make her a sandwich dropzone, I wish to say that Tom Cruise is very much overrated screech-owl, you should talk to THespos about his mouse problem.
