Barbra Streisand!
Today I'm getting to do something I've always wanted to do. No, it's not being a diva, but I can relate.
Let's haiku about the divas, then, real and imagined. Here is mine:
My dad saw her often
Singing by a piano
Old School: Caucus Club.
Now it is your turn. The winner gets... well, you know.
I saw great Elvis,
ReplyDeleteSweating, scarves, a white jump suit,
King of Rock'n roll.
She needs a lot,Man.
ReplyDeleteGardenias behind her ear,
Lipstick bloom on blues.
Fill my veins up and
Make it quick.Press my dress then
Press me to your chest.
She's spine-singin now.
The sax mates with her notes
And their child...Sorrow.
Never be much cash.
She breaks a nail and curses good.
Sucks joint like sugar.
No one sounds like her.
So show respect,Mister Man.
Let rubies stain my silk.
Divas oft burn bright,
ReplyDeleteThe legend lives on for this
Candle in the wind.

She left us too soon
She spun "Fields of Gold"
A hypnotic rendition
A voice like honey

Pompadour danced in
ReplyDeleteBefore her big-boned body
Instrumental sex.
kd you made me
Almost forget to crave men.
Jumpy flute seduce.
Cello form I could
Cling to you,erase blue notes
Glide through on grace...float.
Loved eva cassiddy
ReplyDeleteRenee wins again.

Aretha. Say a little
Prayer for you..her best.

ReplyDeleteAnd holds mike like dandy's cane
Rude lewd.Torn knickers.
Tina Turner and Ike
