Combative poetry

"The sky glows bright and soldiers panic,
Grenades and shells, an atmosphere manic.
Death and destruction lie scattered around,
The “Great and the Good” now a corpse on the ground.

But then those who lived though it, not as they began,
Changed so abruptly by the blood of a man.
Political veil lifted clean from their eyes,
To see War’s one true essence, reprieve and reprise.

People are different, be it colour or creed,
Motivation the same, mostly power and greed.
Celebrate the difference of what your “friend” says
Don’t try to force on him your righteous ways.

For an end of these days of destructive defiance
For a time we create one “Human Alliance”
Working together, not pulling apart
To realise the vision, open your heart.

Change is ongoing, but it’s direction we choose,
This is the battle that we must not loose.
Move from the view of our own nation state
Adapt, become one world…before it’s too late."

Kirsten's home on sale

Would you like to live in the house Kirsten lived in as a child?
Then you can buy Dunst’s childhood home for a pricetag of $1.7 million dollars.

Actress Kirsten Dunst’s childhood home is reportedly on the market for 1.7 million dollars.

The single family home was purchased by Dunst’s mother Inez at the time when she was filming the Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt starrer ‘Interview with a Vampire’.

The actress, who debuted in a Woody Allen film in 1989 at the tender age of seven, moved from her New Jersey into this house at the age of 12. Since she was too young to legally purchase a home for herself, this house remains in her mother’s name.

The home made on an area of 300 square feet, which is being shopped under the listing of “home of celebrities”, has three bedrooms, and is located on a private drive in Toluca Lake, Calif, reports TMZ.

Shelley Smith, realtor to the stars, says that Kirsten`s room includes a den at the top of a spiral staircase that was personalised with "Spiderman" movie memorabilia.

He says that pictures of the inner portions of the house have been placed in a photobook on display for the prospective buyers, and that the neighbourhood is a celebrity-rich locale, with inhabitants like the legendary Bob Hope and Bing Crosby.

Dunst’s family moved out of this home six years ago, when she bought her mom, brother and grandmother a new home on Toluca Lake. Zeenews.com

I think that these pictures belong to this on-sale home in San Fernando Valley, whom she moved at age 11 from her first home in Point Pleasant -New Jersey- (Many communities within the San Fernando Valley are part of the City of Los Angeles, like Granada Hills, Lake View Terrace, Mission Hills, North Hollywood, North Hills, Reseda, Sherman Oaks, Studio City, Sun Valley, Sunland, Toluca Lake, Woodland Hills, etc.) showing us that Kirsten's sense of housing fashion is less quirky than her wardrobe style.

An improper appropriation of mail is a federal delict and an overdose of seductiveness probably is another delict.
We won't punish him for that, though.

James Byron & Jake

Today, 51 anniversay of James Dean's death, I remember two films in which his name was brought up in very different angles. In the movie "Come back to the five and dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean" (1982) by Robert Altman, the neurotic Mona (actress Sandy Dennis) has kept alive her memories about meeting James Dean 20 years ago during the filming of "Giant" and she reunites with her friends in a Woolworth store in a small town of Texas. I watched this film on T.V. in the 90's and I could easily relate to the lead protagonist -who recreated a similar role (Honey) in "Who is afraid of Virginia Woolf?"- because her obsession with James Dean's myth is so blindly absorbing that has forced her to live apart of reality. In the end, stuttering a resentless poignant confession, she reveals us why she lied to herself half of her life.

In the other film, the controversial David Cronenberg's "Crash" (1996), where the characters attend staged recreations of famous car crashes for erotic purposes, like the one that killed James Dean, Vaughan (actor Elias Koteas) says: "These were the confident last words of the brilliant, young Hollywood star James Dean as he piloted his Porsche 550 Spyder race car toward a date with death along a lonely stretch of California two-lane blacktop Route 466... Don't worry that guy's gotta see us. The year... 1955. The day... September 30. The time... Now. The first star of our show is Little Bastard. James Dean's racing Porsche. He named it after himself and had his racing number - 130 - painted on it."
