I merely exist to create, with grace or violence — but perpetually to adorn the world with art.

Carmen Maria Machado, In the Dream House

[pleonastico]

i thought i could handle it, that i'd discipline myself, but i've been sucked back in again. her words stir up everything in me and, on days like this, i’m reduced to nothing but a thing that desires. i'm fire and water at the same time – lavic in my intensity, dense in my abandonment.

i just finished reading Sunburn. some parts made me tear up, so i wrote them down. i tried to find myself, and then i found her too because as soon as i read, "i used to think she was just a bruise, a nice sort of pain that would fade away to nothing. that was all wrong", my bones started to ache as if her name was being carved out of them.

i used to think of us in colours – saffron and tangerine. bright, alive, full of light.

i'm afraid i might’ve thrown myself into the dream again.

what Work is the most important? the work you have to do next. narrow the scope of focus down to that singular glittering point.
