Poetry and things

[dreamlandtheories]

Hi! I’ve recently decided to create and publish journals and I’ve created these spooky girls. They have 120 pages and would be perfect as your diary, your school notebook, or writing down spells. So far, only the purple one is available (please check out https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09BZPBLP6!), but hopefully the pink and black will be available within the next few days. Only $11.99 US! I know times are rough right now, but any support, whether it’s purchasing a journal, or just sharing this post, would be greatly appreciated :)

She fed us her ghost stories while fading inside her body, her beliefs. We chewed hope, fear, rage. Her soul music cleaned us raw & good. All those days scraped with a sad future that was gaining on us like a voice.

— Rachel Eliza Griffiths, from “House,” Seeing the Body

To all you men out there-

If you want to really flatter a woman, you can start by not trying to make her into your side piece. You wanna date me? Make your one and only woman, not something you want to hit up because you're bored or you wanna be a douche.

And, if you're not happy with the person you are currently with and you have no interest in trying to make it work, just end thing with them. Don't go looking for a new fling on the side while pretending you care for someone else. Saves a lot more hassle and you won't have two (or more) women angry with you.

Honestly, this goes for everyone regardless of sex, gender, and orientation but goddamn. It costs zero cents to actually think and be kind to another person, especially when it involves someone you supposedly love. What's so fucking hard about that?

(On a side note, I'm sick of getting nothing but creeps and crud interested in me. I'm about to give up on dating ever because I can't trust the guys who say they like me)

    sometimes so much joy     it strips me bare lilacs grow beside             the city asphalt             and             my mouth can’t open                 wide enough to sing the possibility still left in me.

You know what sucks? Getting sick in the middle of a pandemic and not having anyone who can cover or switch days, so I have to choose between losing even more hours on an already short schedule or going in sick and hoping I don't get caught.
