there's this
part of me that yearns
for the world to be perfect
for every flaw
or difficulty
to be misperception
something I can fix
by just shifting
how I view it
or maybe
finding a way
to be better
and I know,
I know
this can't be true
but I grieve the dream
of beautied souls

Solstice (shorter)
it can feel like decline:
the briefness of days,
an echo of embodied loss
and then life surprises,
adds precious minutes,
says: you know what?
that’s over now.
now you get aging
as a lengthening of heart,
a gentler wisdom,
a becoming of soul.

Person who actually deserves a trophy is the artist who made the FIFA peace prize trophy look like everyone in the entire world holding their head in their hands out of secondhand embarrassment

#Tremble
the heart quivers,
contraction a beat in the rhythm
that pulls us in,
letting air embrace flow
in the endless dance
of becoming.
and I wonder—
might we embrace fear
as moments of withdrawing,
surrendered into stillness,
embraced by possibility
before the next expansion?

it feels so strange,
this returning to ourselves
not because it’s wrong,
but because it’s shocking,
after years of condemnation,
to discover goodness

surely I failed somehow
if my caress sank no deeper than skin,
if my touch failed to resonate
to the percussion of heart
and soft winds of soul

listen, I’ll explain:
your worry seeks your safety
depression would rather
shut things down
than risk agony
your inner critic
only hopes to shape you
into something better
so, tell me,
now that you know their hearts,
might you invite them
for dinner?

The energy is amazing today, so I thought "must be a full moon" and not only is it, but it's the biggest supermoon of the year... the Beaver Moon 😏
I hope everyone gnaws on some wood tonight (or gets gnawed on).

I know.
I know you’re asking me
to go inside—
to talk,
to work,
to try to be better.
please understand:
this diving into mind
(even to heal)
affirms my experience
of aloneness.
could you just
first meet me?
let’s talk.

Yea, big ass red flags all around 🚩🚩
Nobody is talking about the fact that the East Wing is built over the "Presidential Emergency Operations Center," commonly known as the bunker. Is this all a front to make a more secure and comfortable hiding place for after he refuses to acknowledge elections and causes violent civil unrest?
