My milky eyes meet the day
They drink in the infinite dawn
And they expand like the universe
Nuclear corona explodes
I am beyond blind

My reaching hands caress the moon
Overwhelmed by Luna’s Love
Lucidity is the halo which crowns me
Channeling all understanding
Moonbeams penetrate

And I am not a mathematician
But daily I calculate and speculate
About the symmetry of your face
And fret about the time we have left
Before decay takes you
My Love

Maroon and indigo whirlpools swirl
Concentrically… hypnotically…
around your soul
Your skin is burning acid
as you leave your jawbone
at the doorstep of the Beast
Every night

Seduction still haunts this estate
Long electric fingers down my neck
Hold me still, keep me still
In the painted prison

So I will allow your cat scratching, back stabbing
And when we cross swords it will be
With eyes cast to that unseen assassin
Who traces the shadows sensing weakness, surprise
And I will be ready

It’s a numbing sort of feeling
What is the conjunction
between nuclear fall out and black hole dreaming?

Man is silently screaming
Unpicking his creation
Is there a sense, a meaning?

Is that sanity leaving?
Perhaps that’s the fashion
with nuclear fall out and black hole dreaming

The synergies are fleeting
and so is the passion
Are you the sense, the meaning?

And now he’s streaming
Into vivid abstraction
Nuclear fall out and black hole dreaming?
There is no sense, no meaning

In my every instance
you dismiss…
Deny me this:
A higher sense of purpose

Are you all I deserve?
I observe
I mask your nerve
I absorb what you serve

Expendable tourniquet
I have been left
Cold/used/ wet
Bereft

Anywhichway, before I go to bed I must share a little gem… her name is Katie Eary.  Katie is a menswear designer based in London who is making a name for herself with some seriously lovely conceptual mens clothing.  Her clothing is infused with East London avantgarde flavours whipped together with lashings of sexiness and English heritage and retro futurism.

She’s a very exciting designer – up there with Gareth Pugh and Stefan Orschel-Read as the one’s to watch (and buy)!

Her clothes are so inspiring and edgy – I just wish her website was stocked with some of the more cooler lines.

Who are the 2 stand out TV icons of the 80′s, 90′s and early part of this decade?  Who else but the amazing Joan Collins and Kim Catrall.  They’re both  revolutionary bellweathers for the changes that women worldwide were experiencing in these decades.

Their stories are remarkably similiar too: both were born in the UK but went on to Hollywood where they landed movie deals with the big studio’s.  Joan arrived in Hollywood during the Golden Age of the movies where she dated Warren Beatty, stole roles from Marilyn Monroe and was driven around by James Dean.  Kim’s story is a little less glamorous -- she was one of the last of the contract system the studio’s had where they signed stars to multi-picture deals in the late seventies.

Both had some early successes but Joan dropped out eventually to raise her children and deal with her colourful personal life.  Kim starred in a few memorable roles in the eighties but her career wasn’t exactly stellar.  What made it for both of them was starring in TV roles, namely Dynasty and Sex and the City.

Once Joan joined Dynasty as the coniving Alexis Carrington the show’s ratings went through the roof.  As a chid I remember watching TV with my parents and being mesmerised by this ballsy woman who played dirty.  She was the SuperBitch of the eighties.  Big hair, shoulder pads, fur coats, red lips and a withering stare with punchy one-liners.  Let’s not forget the cat fights she had with Linda Evans which were always entertaining.  Dynasty ran for years and Joan Collins was the main attraction.  Everyone loved to hate her!

Kim joined the cast of Sex and the City in the late nineties and it was an instant smash.  The character of Samatha Jones is so memorable for her voracious man-eater tendencies, frank language and outrageous fashion.  Each week people tuned in to be outraged by Samantha’s antics.  Women world wide were in awe of this woman who broke all the rules and all the taboos.  14 years later the series has stopped but there’s talk of SATC 3 being filmed soon.

What’s most remarkable about their stories is that both Joan and Kim landed these roles in their forties which is a very difficult time traditionally for women in Hollywood.  Not only did they create such memorable characters, they fundametally changed the face of popular culture.

The world is a different place because of these two women and the characters they played.  Both of them were strong-willed, independent with just the right amount of sass and bitchiness.  Alexis taught women they can be in charge of the boardroom and the bedroom.  Samantha taught women they don’t need to have a man to make them happy.

Below are some clips of them in memorable roles and a few interviews.
