i didnt see mackenzie on oprah

i missed whitney and barbra too
what is wrong with me
really
this was once unimaginable

a shift
inside somwhere deep
new territory

my friend helene
of jahero
is doing makenzie phillips
while she promotes her new book
there r no coincidences

i was telling tyne
that i have all eileen fisher clothes
i love them
in every way
but i only wear them
when i am going to work - meaning on stage or tv
i dont wear them to rehersal
cause
they r my show clothes

yes she said
smiling - like the big sister u dreamed of being

rosie odonnell deserves nice clothes
that fit well and feel good
but u - sitting here in front of me
u ro
dont u deserve the same stuff


we r healed in dressing rooms
holding each other
and r selves
with hearts open

a window wide and free
all coming in

today was al close to perfection as it comes
sunny
2 kids in the bedroom
a baby calling my name at the door
the joy of that
indescribable
ellis blake viv
on the bed playing
loving
living

amazing
gifts everywhere

natasha lyonne
wow
wow
i want her initals tattooed on my arm
a badge of honor
god i adore her
so smart quirky wise weird fantastic fabulous
it is easy to fall in love on broadway

and i have
sam katie liza
zoya nora delia
and karen carpenter

can u believe
i am being directed by karen carpenter
i saw her at westbury music fair
when i was 11

lauren williams took me
it was magic - up close - alive
i reached my hand thru the security guards
and touched her sweater

love loss and what i wore
come see us
i am having
the time of my life
