The Hero and the Dragon

Soft. Mellow

The calm of a slow voice

Mild. Like sleep. Warm milk

Cold winter night

Slow. Measured

Muffled pedals and ivory keys

Gentle. Tinkling from afar

Filling dead silence

Careful. Mindful

In the high cavernous halls

Hiding. Bandaged burns and scars

As we converse

You and I

Once more.

[grimeishhh]

Forbidden.

A plague of the mind

Contagious

An idea unshakable even by

The strongest hearts.

[grimeishhh]

Twenty-eight

Twenty-nine.

Thirty, but not quite.

Make it till twenty-nine.

The planning can wait.

[grimeishhh]

Chalice.

A flaw in perfection. The unmoving.

A gap, spilling beams of bright burning

Light rays from this cracked chalice

Never overflowing, never empty.

Hands stretched outwards

Like old leather, chapped.

Grasping at motes of

Dust. Grasping

For

Any

Ray

Of

Finality.

A sharp. A shard. A facet to wield.

[grimeishhh]

Thoughts on Purpose

I mean,

This large ball of dirt

Never cared. Never asked for

- Or Needed

Any of us -none of us.

Mere Side effects - affecting the

Rivers like poisoned veins -

Creating clouds of muddy smoke.

Just a mass of parasitic cells latching on

Chittering and jabbing loudly ovewhelmingly

Then claiming greatness and purpose

Certain words can change your brain forever and ever so you do have to be very careful about it.

"Stop saying 15 year olds with weird interests are cringe, they're 15" this is true however you should also stop saying adults with weird interests are cringe because who gives a shit

I want to share some wisdom from my high school art teacher.

In my AP Art class, there was a girl who was just starting to experiment with mixed media. At this point she was still playing around, trying to decide what direction she wanted to go with her portfolio. So one critique day, she brought in an abstract canvas with some rhinestone highlights and painted and real peacock feathers. She loved sparkles and peacock feathers so she thought she’d try introducing them a *little*. And after everyone had given some input, the teacher gave her his advice, VERY roughly paraphrased here:

“So here’s the thing… I do not like this style. These are just elements that do not speak to me personally, but I see that you like them, and you’re doing interesting things with them.

“My biggest critique is, I only merely *dislike* this piece. I want you to make me HATE it. Go crazy with the things that you like. Don’t hold back trying to make it palatable to people like me. Because I am NEVER going to like it. And if the audience does not like it, it should drive them crazy seeing how much YOU love it.”

Her portfolio was chock full of neon colors and glitter and rhinestones and splashes of peacock feathers and it was a delight. Our teacher despised every piece lol, but she got great marks and I think even won some awards. And more importantly, she was happy and proud of the results. Because she didn’t limit herself by trying to appeal to people who were never going to enjoy what she enjoyed.

Takeaway here: be as cringe as you want. Don’t limit yourself based on other ppl’s tastes. They’re not you, and you are incredible 💕

Depression I

Will the looming shadows forever be

Behind me walking, chasing,

After a candle lit with small sparks

And rare joy?

You’re about to be sacrificed by a cult, but when the demon appears before you, it speaks with the voice of your high school friend and says “Hey man, haven’t seen you in forever!”
