My Dad was so open creatively that I was off in search of black turtleneck bathing suits with long sleeves.

A girl in a bikini is like having a loaded pistol on your coffee table - There's nothing wrong with them, but it's hard to stop thinking about it.

I really did put up all my wedding pictures on my website. And I swear to you, my wedding pictures got downloaded just as much as my bikini pictures.

Baywatch T.V.

Watch me strut slowly across the sunny beach,
A red swimsuit beauty wiggling her derriere peach,
your eyes swaying with each step, gaping at my posterior,
every man on his knees worshipping their mother superior,
as we’re at the scene of Baywatch’s shoreline paradise,
the ladies here are going to make you look more than twice,
the oh so gorgeous look to woo the doe eyed kids,
even though you could play the xylophone on her ribs,
whoops sorry to pinprick her dream bubble,
but she could pass off as Skeletor’s stunt double.

So whilst they swagger around like big super stars,
wearing nothing but bikini tops and skimpy bras,
just remember stars are in my eyes, so Matthew tonight,
I am going to be a Baywatch (T) rans(V) estite,
so just imagine a Swedish soft porn star,
with a shaven head and smoking a cigar,
as this G.I. Jane buried a lifeguard up to her neck in sand,
head first, like an ostrich, you must understand,
and nabbed one of her famous red costume tops,

Polka Dot Bikini

Yonks ago,
On a beach in the land of sugar cane,
A girl
Wore a purple
Polka dot bikini
And eyed the sea
Like a matador might eye a bull.

Yonks ago,
On a beach in the land of sangomas,
A girl
Ran to the ocean's edge,
Long hair burning,
Blowing windward and wayward
In the pure blue sunshine.

Yonks ago,
On a beach in the land of ijuba beer,
A girl
Dived under,

The Corsages and Cul-De-Sacs

Slipping into the palmettos like a serpent
Going to see a whore:
Underneath the open wounds of airplanes
Bathing in their two piece swimsuits:
Languishing topside of the astral planes
Using wigi boards to say I love you
To ghosts who try to tell you their names-
Inside a house of diamonds
In the eyes of the crocodile who never smiles
But ticks like a clock, giving fair warning
To prepare the boys for their bar mitzvahs
In the corsages and cul-de-sacs of their
Immortality.

When the Duke, also called Mussolini
saw a maiden in purple bikini
he went into the street
said 'so happy to meet,
let us make, you and me, some bambini.'

Fall

Salted Caramel Mocha at Starbucks.
Gorgeous hues of reds and golds of the fall leaves.
A crispness in the air.
Perfect temperatures.

Football.
Fall fashion boots.
The presidential election.
Halloween is almost here
and Thanksgiving is looming on the horizon.

Daylight savings time.
Fall walks.
Cocoa and hot cider.
Jumping in leave piles.
Time to put away swimsuits and flip-flops.

Winter will come
With icy roads and sidewalks
Snow and bone cold.

Passing Fashion

not yet it's
the first snow
of the season the sun is still coming out
from behind the clouds
and we are taking out from wardrobes

jackets, mini jackets,
coats, spring coats,
overcoats, fur-lined overcoats and winter furs
and covering to severe
frost and strong winds

with thrill of emotion
we are looking at spring
dresses
the last swimsuits
summer shoes

bought,
on the first day of the autumn

The Bikini Principle...

the secret of
being readable lies

in the
principle of a bikini

keep it
hide only what is important

use little. remember
time is precious

bask your body
upon a sunny day.

I used to be very shy. When I first started, I had to go to a casting, and I had to go in a bikini. I thought I was too skinny. But I went in and got the job! And that's how I started.

They both go together; you can't be in front of the camera hosting a fitness television show in front of 75 million households and not have trained 6 days per week year round - in a bikini no less.

If you think about it now, it's kind of ridiculous. All these hot girls on Baywatch in tiny little red bathing suits running around saving lives.

The specific story line that people have responded to the most has been the horror of bathing suit shopping.

I don't want to say, 'This is where Im going to be in five years and Im going to get there no matter what.' I want to leave it open. I'm not a desperate actress dying to star in a B movie in a bikini.

Ageless Beauty

The Ageless Beauty

There is a mannequin,
in the dark corner of
the hall, showing off
a swimsuit 1950 style.

She is beautiful, in her
own eyes, which are
made of coloured glass
...sea green.

Dust on lips she doesn’t
care, not of the sultry
type, show no interest,
in sexual matters.

Spooks guests, when
they have gone she
smiles at her image

I was terrified. My first week, walking around in a teeny bikini, I kept crossing my arms over my chest because I was afraid I was going to fall out of the top of the suit. And I didn't know anything about technique or lighting.

Relaxing Moment

thousand trinkets litter store
all has particular mark on it
cheap with beach logo, colorful
from cups to t-shirts to bikinis
only place on this planet where
you can shop with you undies

i want to buy a new straw hat
it gives me that shelter from heat
comfortable or i'm use to it maybe
rows of restaurant serving drinks
i dropp to one of them for gentle sip
to enjoy watching full beach front

Plasma Floats

Like a bikini top
two hills were rising
in a spiral optics. Has

an altruistic vision.
A wildfire erupts between
the thongs of dead.

You have a mobile message
not to praise the sunrise
in the woods.

I am watching the flames
with a fury
of a wounded tiger.

I was the only swimmer in movies. Tarzan was long gone, and he couldn't have done them anyway; he could never have gotten into my bathing suit.
