By V. Pu Dear Diary, Feb 14 2014
I can’t believe it! He proposed! Dear Diary, Feb 21 2014 Ok so where should I begin…? Save the Dates…check. Cake…check. Flowers…definitely hydrangeas, lilies and roses. On to the dress, speaking of which, I honestly don’t get why anyone would even think about wearing anything other than the classic A-line. A knee-length dress? Hello? This is not a cocktail party! Tea-length… because obviously, people would love to see your ankles and feet. They might even die otherwise. And don’t even get me started on the mermaid. Frankly, ridiculous wouldn’t even begin to describe it. Who invented that anyway? Note to self: DO NOT let the ladies at Vera Wang talk you into anything that isn’t shaped like an A. You are better than this. *Rule number one: Never EVER trust what a clerk tells you. Anyway, I’ll talk to you later. Days left: 52

You would probably feel very confused, as the verses might not sound very pleasant to the ear. Well, let me tell you that it belongs to a very special literary movement known as anti-poetry. By Olga Bessarab I was delayed that afternoon because I had brushed the teeth of a pretty animal that I’m patiently taming. It’s a chameleon. This endearing animal smoked, as usual, some cigarettes, then I left. -“Ideal Mistress” by Robert Desnos Andre Breton, leader of the Surrealist Movement.
