Jane whispers recovery as she pets my throat. School bus yellow and chilled, Jane stares from white porcelain. I’ve been sick for so much and so long, I have to believe, in Jane.
****blogger’s Note****
I’m drinking orange juice while recovering from the flu and listening to Jane’s Addiction. So, this is what I contributed to http://www.trifectawritingchallenge.com/2013/01/trifextra-week-fifty-two.html of 33 word personification – giving human traits to something inanimate – my juice.
Here’s one of the most underrated bands of all-time talking about heroin, not orange juice, but it’s a great song, Jane’s Addiction’s Jane Says.
Terrific take on OJ! love it.
I hope that you feel better soon. Orange juice is tasty when you’re sick, and I sure can believe that it talks to you…
tahnks Tina, I’m getting better. Jane’s Addiction is helping.
Glad you’re getting better. This is one of my all time favorite songs. It’s so sad but I love it.
the story behind it is amazing. I played this so much in college.
Atta boy, Lance! Crank it, Baby! “Jane Says” sounds better louder and is known to cure whatever ails you. Excellent writing, btw, to combine the Jane-vibe with OJ and the flu. Excellent, as always, my friend. Get well soon.
thanks. I agree. This is the best I’ve felt in several days and it’s OJ and JA
OJ. Yum! So good it’s something comforting to have when you are sick. This is a great song. Never really listened to this band before but I think I’ll go sample some more songs and perhaps pick up a few, or an album.
nothing’s shocking and ritual lo habitulo are their two albums from the late 80s. Kettle Whistle is from 1997 when they got back together, like a comilation deal. thanks
I do hope you are feeling better today – I hate being sick – so, so debilitating and that.
Really liked this. Pretty creative take on the prompt
thank you
Oh, I hope you get better!!! (:
I hope you feel better soon… nice description of OJ, well done. May I suggest you drink green tea – no sugar – it contains lots of antioxidants – cure all for what ails you. I’m not a doctor and I don’t even play one on tv, but I do live in CA and we think we know everything about healthy living.
thank you…this flu kicked me around so hard, I’m changing a lot of my diet.
Great take on the prompt & glad to read that you are getting better-cheers to Orange juice(I love it too)Get well soon Lance:-)
A hallucinogenic flu? o_0 Where can I get one of those? Sounds like fun to me!
Nice one!
Great take on the prompt! I hope you’re feeling better soon!
thank you and i am
Love this song. Absolutely love it. And I can totally relate to your post.
Hope you’re feeling better!
thanks christine
I love that song. We’re in recovery mode here too and could probably do with some Jane.
Jane’s Addiction helped…i’m better
the white porcelain had me going in another direction, so thanks for clarifying! GEt well soon!
thank you…yeah, now that i’ve reread it i see what you mean
OJ? And here I’ve been trying hot toddies!
Good take on the prompt, Lance.
I think I went in the same direction as Kymm with the white porcelain reference
Glad you’re feeling better!
I bet you’re a pulp guy too. Hope Jane was good to you, and you’re feeling better.
i’m feeling better. still not 100 percent. I’m indifferent to pulp, take it or leave it. My women don’t care for pulp, though.
