THE CIRCUS PRESS AGENT TELLS THE WOMAN WHO HATED SEX THAT HE WOULD LIKE TO 'STIR UP' SOME PUBLICITY
Debbie Urbanski
“If we took away your trappings,
tell me, would you prefer a lady or a man
or a man, say, masquerading in the in-between?
Don’t go odder than that—I know what pitches
to the news desks, who like a freak, but within reason.
You’ve heard of Mae, our ‘bearded’ vixen?
I told her go bake some Bundt cakes in her RV trailer—
news cameras swarmed like she had the honeysuckle teats!”
“Then Mae went crazy. She climbed in her oven.”
“Okay, see how everything you say is the same unbearable
length. When they come, quietly offer them a crumpet
with your husband/wife/whatever beside you on the loveseat,
instead of pulling autoerotic scarves from your privacies
while those puzzled reporters press erase.”
