Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

youstolemylungs

we can be everything to each other.

sanstoitniloi

"You survive this and in some terrible way, which I suppose no one can ever describe, you are compelled, you are corralled, you are bullwhipped into dealing with whatever it is that hurt you. And what is crucial here is that if it hurt you, that is not what’s important. Everybody’s hurt. What is important, what corrals you, what bullwhips you, what drives you, torments you, is that you must find some way of using this to connect you with everyone else alive. This is all you have to do it with. You must understand that your pain is trivial except insofar as you can use it to connect with other people’s pain; and insofar as you can do that with your pain, you can be released from it, and then hopefully it works the other way around too; insofar as I can tell you what it is to suffer, perhaps I can help you to suffer less."

- James Baldwin, The Artist's Struggle for Integrity

Jonice Webb, Running on Empty: Overcome Your Childhood Emotional Neglect

finally tried my hand at a twin cinema poem and yaowza !! took me a couple hours to figure it out but i'm very happy with this one and i wanted to share. you can read gideon and harrow's thoughts separately to see their perspectives on their own and each other's actions, and putting them together supposedly reveals the truth of the lengths they would go to but can't communicate to one another :3

i just think that a form where they are talking to one another without hearing any response and yet are intertwining so perfectly is deeply on theme and makes me ill

also sorry for image quality i formatted this on canva and idk how to put such a complex form into an image description so apologies </3

It's amazing how you can be nothing but nice and supportive to people, then they just block you out of the blue without even having the decency to give a reason.

Morgan Harper Nichols’ ‘Let July be July’

[ID: 3 quotes, each reading as follows, 1: “Nothing ever ends poetically, it ends and we turn it into poetry. All that blood was never once beautiful. It was just red.” 2: “A disaster is a disaster; those hurt by it remain hurt, those killed remain killed, the rubble remains rubble. Talk of causes is beside the point.” 3: “Nothing but vulnerable. And all this metaphor. An ordinary hand—just lonely for something to touch that touches back.” End ID.]
