FYI I have transitioned from my regularly scheduled insufferability to Taylor Swift album drop gargoyle brain abomination mode for the foreseeable future. Thank you for your attention to this matter. #taylorswift #thelifeofashowgirl

I just want to eat strawberries and read books in a world where everyone is safe. Instead I explain the difference between racism and prejudice and witness the aftermath of what bombs do to human bodies. #humanrights #wedeservebetter

so bizarre to watch a physics program from before the Higgs boson was discovered.

i’ve spent over half my life listening to @brighteyesband.bsky.social and i’ll spend the rest doing the same.

When our mouths met,
I tasted it—
the grudge on your lips.
The first omen wasn’t poison,
just the way that you kissed.

Our bodies made language,
our mouths filled with flames—
if only fire
had soft things to say.

excerpt, “pretty little labor machine”

I gave up wishing on stars,
In favor of engineering your dreams—
white picket fence,
a pretty little labor machine.

Made babies and forgot
I was supposed to eat.
Became just another way
to transfer heat.

Stay tuned 🖤

Love this 🖤

Featuring emotional scoliosis, a deep-seated suspicion of anything that can fly, and a transfer request to a less possessive dimension ✨

Great shot

Beautiful 🖤

poems my alter ego is working on:

dear gravity (you heavy bitch)
to my 12th house (landlord from hell)
dear chaos witch (valentine from a parallel dimension)
dear literary journal editor (i have submitted my entire personality, again)

I appreciate that so much, thank you 🖤

metaphor withdrawal protocol You were a fractal, throwing rainbow shapes on the wall. I calculated every angle, then lined them all with salt. I spun around and down, a sentient spiral toward the ground. Burned up on descent. Wore the night like a borrowed gown. I tried to read you like scripture, words and lines and paragraphs. The meaning kept shifting on the page. Emotion danced in parallax. The pattern ruptured - like a vein, settled into blue-black bruise. I never felt the impact. I was looking at you. I wrote poems for a cadaver, smiled at a stranger wearing your face. Words failed at making meaning. I kept writing, just in case. I watched helplessly while you changed. I didn't recognize who you became. There was no metaphor left. Only you. And me. And what we made of that.

I write grief like it’s a scientific method. this one is the control variable.

from my manuscript-in-progress: emotional physics.

Thank gods. I can’t wait to drop the lore on the eternal beef between Gravity and Issac newton.

#Like this if you’d #read #poetry about a #Gemini moon exiled to the 12th house, working doubles at a haunted Cheesecake Factory where she argues with ancient gods in the walk-in, dodges cryptic texts from the #zodiac #groupchat, and gets spiritually subtweeted by her #exes in the astral plane.

A reminder that fiction — books, film, games, what have you — is always political. The willful absence of “politics” in any work is itself a political choice and a political act. Who gets to tell (and sell) stories is political. It might be an undercurrent — covert, not overt. But it’s there.
