Ugly. Is irrelevant. It is an immeasurable insult to a woman, and then supposedly the worst crime you can commit as a woman. But ugly, as beautiful, is an illusion. A matter of taste, a whim, an eye, a beholder, an opinion, a spin, light crossing the frame, paint, projection. The moment. Context. Not to […]
That last time I saw you was maybe three years ago at CJ’s open mike at Lucy’s Laundromat on Sunset. I said, “Tell that brother of yours I should have married him when I had the chance.” Way back then, you hadn’t yet come to California, your brother and I were together, sweet and young, […]

I am gloating. People be trying to beg us to take their email addresses off the site because they have been deluged with hate mail in response to their hate mails to me. I want to say, “You reap what you sow,” but now I have all kind of love for the because it is […]
I think there is a shitstorm brewing, and it kind of went my way a bit, but I was in the studio recording my new record, so I missed the downpour. What I can see is that there are really stupid people in this country and then when you point out how stupid they are, […]
Margaret received these letters immediately following this post and this post from the right wing website, Free Republic. We originally posted the emails with all the names and return addresses intact, but eventually had to remove them because we became aware they were being contacted by many of Margaret’s outraged fans. Free Republic, which a […]
The moveon.org moved the crowd and the minds of all the people involved. I met Chuck D – Chuck DDDDDDDD!!!!!!!! We went to the soundcheck at Hammerstein, earlier in the day, and saw Chuck D and The Fine Arts Militia rocking a new version of “Fight the Power.” He is beautiful and the terrific strength […]
