The Fairy of Fun

What’s going on in the mind of the person 
Sitting next to you?
Can you feel what they feel?
Maybe you don’t want to
I wouldn’t blame you.
But what if you woke them up
with a song or a dance 
Or a, “how are you today?”
“I like the way your soul was made.” 

Do do dooo do do doo do do dooo do do dooo do do dooo oooo oooo ooo
Do do dooo do do doo
do do do do dooo do
do do do do dooo

I’ll build a bridge
made of art and magic 
so you can come visit my world 

I know there is no finish line,
So I live inside a poet’s mind
And weave worlds of whimsy 

silly, saucy, sassy, sweet 
Endlessly dancing dexterous feet 
I’ll serve you a song as an after dinner treat 

I’m an Ancient friend rising from the earth to meet you with hugs, high fives, fist bumps, and 
special handshakes
I am a bottomless pit of giggles 
I’ve got a mad case of the wiggles 
Bouncy rubber band balls 
Juggling fruit 
Origami 
Hullabaloo 
Musical outbursts 
Kitchen choreography 
Speaking in poetry 
I have delightfully unusual qualities 
My specialty...crawling 
I wonder, “How can I have fun with anyone?”
Where is my power in the room to be absurd?  
No one said I couldn’t show up to the party
As the spirit of a bird  
handstands and kartwheels
attempted winks and grins
hoorays and fuck yeahs
mutual wins 
stories
long stares
sweet song spells
across the street yells
Might as well dance
if we’re living in hell 
Might as well bless my friends with the scent of freshly baked peanut butter banana chocolate chip gluten free muffins 
Than that rotting street side garbage smell 
giddy focus 
Hocus pocus 
Buttery mashed potatoes 
breakdancing 
Flamenco 
hip hop 
Aerobics class 
Pure ridiculousness

You may know me as 
The sunshine shaman
Your local distributor of delight 
The Fairy of Fun
The Demon of Fun 
The dark elf
That whimsical motherfucker 
Or simply 
Jill

I am
fluid and electric
Mesmerizing
Harmonizing 
Roots grounding 
Hearts rising 
Realizing Bliss
my song
a cosmic lover’s kiss

I am a creative sanctuary on two feet
a fountain of beauty
A house of mystery
I’m like MDMA
In my presence
You spill your stories
You can’t help but pour yourself out
Like a freshly cracked egg

My favorite gifts to receive…
Joyful absurdity
a plate of hot, healthy food 
An opportunity to sing a river right into your living room
And whisper with my eyes, “Come swim in the river of Jill”

I’ll build a bridge made of art and magic
So you can come visit my world
I know there is no finish line
So I live inside a poet’s mind
And weave worlds of whimsy

Why is it amazing to be human? 
Because we have the potential to become superhuman
To diverge from the norm
To move between many forms

I am a shapeshifter 
A collector of vocal textures 
A Replicator of rhythms 
A fountain of funny

Reserved but somehow 
Extraordinarily bold 
Young in the face
Ancient in the soul "

This life is
my playground
my experiment
my passion
my play.
No need to be a boring blob glob
When you can be a beauty beast dropping beauty bombs
I don’t know who told you magic wasn’t real
But it sounds like they didn’t know how to have fun

Hello Supreme Magic Makers!
I replaced the content of your salt and pepper shakers
With fairy dust
My irrational laughter breaks the invisible yet tangible walls between me and you
Hahahaha!
