One of the best poems I’ve read all year.

by Jeremy Radin

What a beautiful piece! I wanted to linger in this world awhile 😌

A Day! Help! Help! Another Day!

—Emily Dickinson

Not me quoting "Interview with a Vampire" to my therapist during an EMDR session. (In which adult me tells teenage me, "I'm going to give you the choice I never had.") 🧛🏻‍♀️

Half a dosage down in reducing my meds and feeling all the feelings. Suffering...but happy about it. 😅😭🥹

I think of heartbreak like sticking a pinkie into the spindle
hole to wind the pulled-loose tape taut and expecting it to play
the same as it did before.

Most of your writing will never see the light of day. But neither do diamonds until someone digs them up. Keep going, little goblin.

I am not as honest as fresh snow, and you'll never forgive me.

Rewatching the Harry Potter movies. Honestly, I'm surprised the Dursleys even let him have glasses. Also, I have so many questions about the house in the middle of a stormy ocean.

I pour my coffee slowly in the post-apocalypse glow and dream about the moon. 🌙

But what if every time I visit a city, we don't meet up for coffee - we meet up and get tattoos?

Me: You're definitely a Slytherin.
Carlos: I know.
Me: ...I think I'm a Hufflepuff.
Carlos: I don't know what that is, but you're definitely a Hufflepuff.

I don’t want to ‘work to live’ or ‘live to work.’ I want to sit in a sunbeam like a cat and have snacks appear in front of me

I wrote a Twin Peaks poem for a workshop even though I told myself not to write a Twin Peaks poem because then I'd want it to be in my already-published book, but the prompt wanted it to be a Laura Palmer meets The Little Mermaid poem, so I wrote the poem, and now I'm mad that it's not in Blue Rose.

About to get fingie tats on my right hand knuckles 👊🏻 Guess the word!
