Stories whispered from the lives of others, my own life, or animate objects full of their own truths.
Today is a struggle to write. Normally it just flows out but I feel everything clashing around inside like a broken piano notes plunking off in a sad beat lacking the coordinated effort that is music this piano is out of tune and jostling so many notes at once in time maybe it would sound … Continue reading
In a house in the desert, there is a window out to the world. Everyday we press ourselves against it. Drunkenly smelling the scents carried by the arid air. Exalting in the sights this small vantage gives us. Shedding our skin on the wall, in a ritual exfoliation that may jettison us to transcendence. The physical pressing, … Continue reading
Our ability to be seen through is, perhaps, our greatest goal. That we have nothing to hide, nor anything to hide behind.
