1. Superheroes
Costumes,
Flying,
Secret identities
and saving of people.
2. Period Era Barbie
An unestablished powdered wig Century.
Low cleavage and large skirts
stuffed with my moms silk scarves.
Lot’s of competition about who was going to
“The Ball.”
And with whom.
3. Soap Opera Barbie
Often played with my brother.
We called the Soap Opera “Sara Blackstone”
after the main character,
a delightfully horrible woman
and sang a short theme song before each episode.
My favorite Soap Opera as a young girl was
“Santa Barbra.”
4. Ballet recital Barbie
Ballet recitals are always great for drama.
Also I loved classical music.
5. Modeling Agency Barbie
The Agency was called “Black Pearl”
targeted towards recruiting my Black Barbies
in successful and competitive fashion careers.
Pre-ANTM
6. Sex Barbie
An orgiastic pile up
of all my Barbies
Naked.
They had no reproductive organs
but my imagination was quite vast.
7. New Barbie Barbie
Whenever I got a new Barbie
the favorite one would go pick her up at the airport.
She was usually a relative of some kind,
a cousin.
All the Kens had a crush on her because she was new.
All the other Barbies hated her because she was new.
She was oblivious and super friendly.
