dear brett kavanaugh

You have two daughters and I have three daughters:

the three versions of myself I could have been

if my body had not been bent back or bent forward

or bent in or bent out or….a mollusk, if left to its own devices,

will lie in salt until the soft meat of its insides

unfolds into rot. Some animals will choose to die

if given the choice to live.

The girl I was then might have held hands

with the girls your daughters are now.

If violence hadn’t been a kind of water

I grew familiar with.

I have not been anointed. I never swore with my hand

on the Holy Bible. I never swore about anything

but the truth, and the truth was a bottle

that he drank dry.

On Twitter, a woman says…that as you were confirmed,

hand raised in the air, she wondered

if it was the same hand you used to cover

Dr. Ford’s mouth.

All of our hands have lived several lives.

Thousands. We’ve used them to harness the stars,

bake the bread, stir the pot, undo a button,

set an alarm, ring the bell.

To close a throat and then to open it.

I wonder

if the hand you place in your daughters’ now

is the same hand.

If there is a kind of cry

still living in your fingers.

I was born twice: once, pulled by my hair,

I came out dripping.

The second, I came out

gasping.

Witnesses say they asked Britney why she shaved her head and her response was, “I’m tired of plugging things into it. I’m tired of people touching me.”

i can never not reblog this

T-Pain: “That was the most beautiful thing in the world. Do you know why she was shaving her head? Because it was so important to other people. She is like, “Listen. Don’t touch my hair anymore. Stop touching my hair.” People were like, “We’ve got to make your hair before you go outside. You can’t leave.” She went … “Now I don’t have hair. What you going to do?”

The older I get the more her breakdown seems less ‘unbalanced’ and more ‘completely understandable’

[saundering-deactivated20180828]

it’s because other people told you she was unbalanced at a point in your life when you didn’t have the life experience or wisdom to understand otherwise

Are you ever sorry?“ He asked. “For loving you?” She smiled and shook her head. “No. There are so many things to be sorry for, but loving you isn’t one of them.” For some reason, that answer made him even more restless. “What are the things you’re sorry about, then?” He asked after a while. “I’m sorry that I wasn’t quite right for you. That you weren’t quite right for me. That the timing wasn’t quite right for us. We were never lacking in love. It wasn’t ever a question of whether we loved each other enough or not, because if love could fill a whole room - ours would have needed more space. It would have burst out of the windows and banged open doors.” She stopped, and smiled such a sad smile it broke his heart all over again. “You know I loved you so much.” He whispered. She reached out to squeeze his hand and said, “I know, darling. I know. But even the greatest of loves cannot withstand the wars of this world. And no matter how much we loved each other, it wasn’t a war we were supposed to win.

If you can see a future without me and that doesn’t break your heart then we’re not doing what I thought we were doing here.
