POPPY ROOM

The California Poppy is used medicinally for insomnia and nervousness. For me, the decor of this room would promote insomnia and nervousness.

Anyone have a feng shui analysis to offer?

I used to make long speeches to you after you left. I used to talk to you all the time, even though I was alone. I walked around for months talking to you. Now I don’t know what to say. It was easier when I just imagined you. I even imagined you talking back to me. We’d have long conversations, the two of us. It was almost like you were there. I could hear you, I could see you, smell you. I could hear your voice. Sometimes your voice would wake me up. It would wake me up in the middle of the night, just like you were in the room with me. Then… it slowly faded. I couldn’t picture you anymore. I tried to talk out loud to you like I used to, but there was nothing there. I couldn’t hear you. Then…I just gave it up. Everything stopped. You just… disappeared. And now I’m working here. I hear your voice all the time. Every man has your voice.

Music fans that grew up in the ‘90s have a knee-jerk response to hearing Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes’s voice. As the main mouthpiece and lone rapper in TLC, she acted as a pop culture ambassador, turning up regularly on MTV shows, top 40 radio, and the theme song to All That. Her bouncy rhythm and cool, cocky style are magnetic, and listening to it is like watching your hilarious friend walk into a party. Today marks the tenth anniversary of her death in a traffic accident in Honduras, but her legacy lives on through her music, a documentary, and countless airbrushed t-shirts. No car crash could wipe away the memories of her complex hairdos and brilliant rhymes, and her musical legacy is just a sliver of we learned from Left Eye’s short time behind the mic.
