Soundtrack: "Wedding Bell Blues" — Laura Nyro    

The Prayer above and the Vows below were written in 2001,
as my contribution to the legendary "Anti-Bridal Fashion Show"
by the legendary couture designer Christina Sands at Atlanta's
late lamented legendary bluemilk arts gallery.

Today, these Modern Marriage Vows have become
my most popular Page, with 25-30 Visitors per day
getting a healthy laugh at this remarkably serious
Lifestyle Choice:  to Love Your Self.


 
The Only Marriage Vows That Work
MUST BE RENEGOTIATED AND RENEWED EVERY 1,001 NIGHTS


(last revised April 1st, 2003)

Repeat after me— me. me. me.
Me First. Me Alone. Me so Lonely.
These are the Dues I pay each day
to live My Life as a Work Of Art.

I hereby dedicate each Moment of Time to craft
the Memorable Character who plays The Best Me
in this Movie of My Life, in sure and certain Fear
My God is a lofty Studio Exec who expects to be
Entertained. My Only Purpose is to Play my Part
as if Real Life depends upon it.  Because it does.


Me, ______________________, being of found Mind,
do now pledge with all my Power to Believe this Life
is truly a Movie
, thus remain Free to write my Script,
to develop my Talent, and to cast my own Co-Stars.

However.

To make Great Art takes two people.
One, the Great Artist. The Other,
to tell the Artist when to stop.

(turn to face your Beloved Collaborator,
repeat together in perfect Harmony:)


I will re-write Your Script
if you will edit Mine.
And if we Create a Hit,
we negotiate Our Sequel
1,001 Nights from now.

(Kiss and fondle one another, then both say)

DEAL!

(Shake hands, sign Your Contracts,
host a Feast, then get to Work!)
