Jacuzzi Blues by Belinda Roddie Wouldn't it be nice, simply divine, to lounge in a hot tub on the patio with your wife? Soaking in the jet stream with the love of your life? If only you were a trust fund baby: Then it wouldn't be so steep of a damn price.

Purple Hair by Belinda Roddie I'm the coolest on the spectrum now - the kite's tail of the rainbow. Watch me dance in the darkest rooms, where I can be both subtle and flamboyant as fuck. If you decide to cavort with me, be forewarned: I am a mix of fiery red and somber blue, the mania and the depression wrapped up in a sticky rice ball. You may find me edible with some soy sauce, maybe. If you give me a chance, the flames will subside, and the ocean's waves will inevitable ebb. In truth, I symbolize calm. Like the sky between the heavens and the earth, I am a balance of God and mortals. Once you let me into your modest life, your sunrises and twilights will never be the same.
