“Pretend you’re a woman. Coming back to a place where you once were a girl. A place where you used to imagine life as an adult. Now you’re back. You’ve seen some shit. You’ve been through the fucking wringer. There have been relationships and hardships and blessings beyond belief. Diagnosis’, a baby that made you a mother, several jobs and homes down the road.

I remember a water bottle and abandoned bleachers. I remember axe body spray and the way I had never been kissed. I know […]

Nirvana & I think of you

I hope you know better than to think I’d want to be anywhere but here right now. It was true on NYE and it’s true right now in my car outside the café. This may have felt seamless. Too seamless. Happenstance. But I’m here on purpose, now. I see your soft heart and I see […]

I hope you know better

You’ll walk through a glittering white veil, uncharacteristically soft compared to what you’ll find behind it. It has no need to keep you out. You quickly realize it’s the aura within that turns most around. The texture disorients. I’ll already be inside. What do you see? Upon first impression, you’re in a desert.
