i've been writing quite a bit, nothing extravagant or polished but i shall post things anyways.
so how are all you lovely folk?


cataclysmshouting hello from the opaline rooftops of this firefly city, cradling my epic collection of concerns.cataclysm
seated here between flesh-colored, breathing walls, filling invisible cages with hazy thoughts drawn by children in chalk. they resemble missing string cat's cradle patterns.

born far away, the blood already calm and running
because when
the eyes open the heart opens the hands open and all of a sudden everything is frighteningly open
yet a poet child
