Diva

By Monica

Anise can’t eat Cheetos

Only drinks bottled water

Can’t cross the street alone

Mom won’t let her stay home

Alone for too long

Her barking’s so annoying

Her Vienna sausage

Looks so yummy

She’s tiny and divine

Go get laid

Cuz I want a puppy

I always  forget who's dog Anise was. I've asked Monica  a million times and I still always forget. I just know that it was some friend of hers.

Apparently Anise was very popular at the time because there's quite a few poems about her coming up and even a Reader Profile even though I don't think she ever actually read the zine. She might have peed on it once though.

BTW, I must take a minute here to say Vienna Sausages are very underrated. Yes they look more like erasers than actual food and that water that they come packed with smells kinda nasty, but my mom has been making those since I was little and I kinda like them. Must be the same way Americans feel about Baloney. Yes, I know I'm technically American too being that I was born in the US and I live here but I mean the kind of Americans without Cuban parents to make them yellow rice with Vienna sausages.

I never had fried baloney until I was like 23.
