I hate to break it to you – I know you’ve been off thinking I’m special or something but… I am just like other girls. They, we, are fucking magical. I, simply, made the mistake of letting you see rather than looking in the mirror and revealing myself to me. In my era of correction,Continue reading “Poetry Series – New Moon”

Poetry Series – Collection of Consistency
I’ve been spotty here for a minute as my focus has been falling on other goals and platforms. This year I’m determined to grow more consistent about my consistency. With that, I’ve commited to myself that I will write daily, whatever that looks like. To see my daily writings pulled from the inspiration of lifeContinue reading “Poetry Series – Collection of Consistency”
Poetry Series – Police
The truth is, I’m too white to feel as much tension in the presence of the police as I often feel. Historically, the police haven’t been enemies to me to the same magnitude that other races have seen. But my jaw still clenches, back straightens, I search for what I’m doing wrong and prepare myContinue reading “Poetry Series – Police”
Poetry Series – Dreamscapes
My greatest journey in life has been remembering how to consistently be myself, consistently love. It’s still a work in progress but, I’m finally letting my weird be weird to the people who find it weird without feeling the need to suppress it. Dreamscapes The bathrooms are finally clean, I can go in them –Continue reading “Poetry Series – Dreamscapes”
Poetry Series – Psychosis
I haven’t been writing and I’ll say it’s because I didn’t have time but feel free to call my bullshit and acknowledge my unwillingness to prioritize the things that are important for me, even amidst that chaos. Here’s to hoping it’s time for a strong return. Here’s to always finding your way back to yourself,Continue reading “Poetry Series – Psychosis”
Poetry Series – Flame
I think back to my adoration of just about anyone and realize that one of the things that drew me to them was the ways in which they would challenge me. I remember explaining to my therapist that breakups weren’t really a big deal for me, even some of the more major ones, because asContinue reading “Poetry Series – Flame”
Poetry Series – Winter is Coming
I started getting signs before I knew that they were signs. Even now as I get them, if I try to figure out what they mean, I almost never do. I need to step back and look at the world around me, and the situations I’m in for what they are without the emotional attachmentContinue reading “Poetry Series – Winter is Coming”
Poetry Series – The Devil is in Church
I wait until my boyfriend is trapped in the car with me, on a longer-than-I-thought drive to breakfast, following my impulses, before I decide to tell him the story about where I was two nights before. Looking back, the whole thing sounds like a setup for one of those bad jokes – you know theContinue reading “Poetry Series – The Devil is in Church”
Poetry Series – Mixed Up Emotions
Sometimes I feel guilty for just how much I enjoy spending time alone, even away from my partner, but the truth is it’s the only way I have right now to clear out the noise and get in touch with myself. I didn’t realize until last week that I keep getting sick at family partiesContinue reading “Poetry Series – Mixed Up Emotions”
Poetry Series – Channel
Do you ever feel like you’re seeing a perspective too tall for your body? Does that even make sense? I have yet to meet someone else that says yes but sometimes, out of nowhere, I’m suddenly seeing much too high for whatever would be picked up by my bodily eyes. Do you ever smell smellsContinue reading “Poetry Series – Channel”
