SCENE OPENS:
[The scene opens on a detective and shop girl making small talk in a bakery. A maid browses the bread on the opposite side of the store.]
MAID
Oh yes, this will do nicely! [Lifts the bread, inspecting it, then places it in the basket on her arm and dashes out of the store]
SHOP GIRL
[Screeching] THEIF! THEIF!
DETECTIVE
[Turning around just in time to see the maid leave] Well, she’s gone. But I can help you file a report if you’d like.
SHOP GIRL
[Indignant] Why don’t you just chase after her?
DETECTIVE
[Pulling out a pencil and notebook] Ma’am, I’m a detective, not a cop. I don’t do that running thing. Now, about that report.
[The maid stands in the alleyway, listening to the shop girl explain the theft to the detective]
MAID
[Pacing the alley] No, I can’t get caught. If I go to jail, who is going to feed my children? I must make sure that I don’t get caught.
DETECTIVE
[Closing the notebook and putting away her pencil] Well, I think I have all I need. I’ll go file this report right now, and a cop will come help you soon. [Exits the stage]
MAID
I know what I must do! [Walks back into the shop]
SHOP GIRL
You’re back! Planning to steal more bread? I’ll just call that detective back! [Reaches toward her pocket to grab her cell phone]
MAID
[Stepping toward the girl] Oh, there’s no need for that. [Slides scarf off her neck and plays with it]
SHOP GIRL
Why do you say tha-
MAID
[Wraps her scarf around the shop girl’s neck, quickly strangling her.] That’s why. [Unwraps her scarf, dropping it in her basket, dragging the girl offstage before returning to pick up her basket before dashing out of the store.]
DETECTIVE
[Walking back into the shop.] Ma’am, I have a few more questions before I file that report. [Looking around, puzzled] Ma’am? Store keeper? [Seeing her shoe and picking it up] Why would her shoe be here? Unless, of course…She’s dead! I must find her murderer. [Starts inspecting the scene, taking notes]
STUDENT
[Poking her head into the shop] Excuse me? I – I know who killed that shop girl. I watched it happen.
DETECTIVE
Oh really now? What do you know?
STUDENT
Well, I was standing across the street, taking notes on the building’s architecture for a class of mine. [Holds up a book] When suddenly, a woman in a maid’s outfit came running out of the store and I heard people shouting about her being a thief.
DETECTIVE
I know that! I was there. Quit wasting my time. [Waves the student away]
STUDENT
Wait, wait. There’s more…After you left, the maid came back in and……Well, I heard a scream. I think she killed the shop girl! Actually, no. I know she killed her. I saw her drag the body into that alleyway just before you came.
DETECTIVE
Well, she’s obviously not there anymore, so I’ll just go file this report and get some back-up to help me canvas the area.
STUDENT
What? You’re not even going to check the alley?
DETECTIVE
Ma’am, I’m a detective, not a CSI. I don’t do the ‘possible’ crime scenes thing. Now, I’m going to file this report. [Leaves]
STUDENT
[Wandering around shop] She didn’t say that I should go, but at the same time, I don’t know what else she’d need from me. But maybe I should stay. This is a cute little shop anyway. Yes, I’ll stay here. But I’m so hungry, no one will notice if I eat this bread though. [Reaches toward bread]
MAID
[Slipping into store while student is talking to herself, creeping up behind the student and slicing her throat] She was going to get the cheap bread, anyway. Ugh, she got blood all over me! I should go wash up. [Drops the student on the floor and wipes her hands on her apron and walks toward the back to pick up a washcloth]
DETECTIVE
[Walking back into the shop] Girl, are you still here? I realized I didn’t get everything I needed for that report. [Sees the bloody maid] You! I’ve caught you red-handed this time. You’re going to jail for one count of theft and two of murder.
MAID
Oh, alright, I suppose. But first, I insist that you try this bread, it’s phenomenal. [Slices the bread and pulls out a small bottle of arsenic]
DETECTIVE
Well I am hungry. Go ahead and give me a slice. Wait, what’s that you’re putting on it?
MAID
Oh, it’s just my own oil and vinegar combination, it tastes great, especially on this bread. [Holds the slice out to the detective]
DETECTIVE
[Takes the bread and takes a bite] Wait, that’s not oil and vinegar. That’s – [Falls over, dead]
MAID
[Steps over the detective and walks out of the store, laughing maniacally]

Bisexual

I can already see,
See the disgust in your eyes.
I can it see it doesnt matter,
Youre always telling me
How much you love me,
That your love for me
Is unconditional
One phrase I can say
Will truly put
Your love to the test
I like girls
Look,
Look at your eyes fall,
Can you look me in the eye?
Youre crying now,
Please, please stop.
Dont, no dont, walk away
I like girls,
But Im not gay
I like boys,
But Im not straight
I never meant to hurt you
But I am who I am,
I never meant to disappoint you
But I love whom I love.
And I am Bisexual.
Literature
Bisexual
I once knew a girl who was pretty in pink
she decided purple was more her color i think
She tried to hide her true self
by acting on the straight
And ignoring the rest
But the boys
They mistreated her
And ran her around
So she finally decided
That this life wasn't worth it
so she tried to die
But an angel stopped her
And in a whisper
Told her it was ok to be bi
And now she's happier
And excited to
She coming out
How about you?
Literature
Homophobia Is Gay
This one goes out to every boy bullied after school
Because he kissed his boyfriend in public
This one goes out to every girl that their father won`t look at
Because he caught her holding hands in the mall with her girlfriend
This is for every father who isn`t allowed to see his child
Because he`s married to another man, and his child`s mother is homophobic
This one is for every mother whose child is in a foster home
Because she is married to another woman
To every boy who is afraid to use the public bathroom
Because he might get security dragging him out
To every girl who is afraid to show her face in class
Because the cool girls
