From my first collection of poetry and prose, Spades. Signed books and custom poetry available through link in bio.
J. Raymond
don’t fall in love with me. not unless you’re ready for a god damn fight. i don’t want frailty, or fiction and fairy tales. i want you to be irrational, because i’m irrational. be bold. speak your mind. i want your wildfires, and obscenities. i want your passion, and priorities. protect what’s yours. i’ll defend what’s ours. let us fight against routines and bad habits, and anything typical. and don’t you dare quit. not on us, not on yourself. god help the person who threatens us. forgive me when i let you down, but don’t ever overlook it, or allow it. we’re all insecure about something. show me yours. we’re all terrified sometimes. turn to me. people come in and out of my life so often and easily that i just look for a love that stays. i don’t mind your blemishes or scars. i have a few of my own. don’t be another flash in the pan. falling for me will be easy. staying with me will be impossible. but you deserve a love that most people don’t believe in anymore. 🥀 — #jraymond #loveis___ #mygreatestinspiration #lioness #wildwoman #wildheart #unapologeticsoul
have you ever just read something and wonder if the person behind the writing knows who you are and exactly what you're going through be it on a daily basis or just in life general. This hit me so hard this morning I had to share. #leftmespeachless #JRaymond #mylife (at Virginia)
"Where do you see yourself in a few years?" #jraymond
"I'm older and slightly more mature. If I cared about you at some point, chances are I'll always care about you. If I loved you deeply and you're no longer with me, I will learn to love the memory. I will learn to love you in different ways and for different reasons." --- J. Raymond
I lay the trite and vapid down to sleep, and pray the cellphone my hoe to keep. And if I learn one single goddam thing before I wake, I pray pop culture my soul to take. May god have mercy on those with no dignity or gag reflex. Bitter beer face fools with collagen lips and labia reconfiguration on match.com dot cumming to divorced men with greyhound beards. If we loved you we wouldda put a cock ring on it, but instead we slid into your DM's like broken home plates, self perpetuating a generation your greatest-grandparents would have coat hangered. You love this quote, don't you. You lovely little backwash, you. You remind me of a story my grandmother once told me about a rat who was so much of a rat that at the end of the story it was a big, fat dumbass rat only twenty-five years older. Now I'm forced to weave your whiskers into whiskey folklore and forgive the fact that you're mostly low-functioning autistic in public. Waaaaaaaiiiittttttttttt...... She was a butterfly with broken wings and dreams, flying into the suns forevermore and ever after. When HE "breaks" you, remember it was always SHE who made you....uh.....you. You're a survivor because, mostly, anyone who isn't wouldn't buy any of my books. I was told that if I continue to alienate and offend my "readers" that I'll go broke. Did you know that? Did you know that all of this shit you're reading from everyone other than me is mostly choreographed and contrived? Well, now you know what I've always known, and rather than further beg you to buy my books I'll ask you once more for the umpteenth time, "Are you thinking?" "Are you using your brain" And to, please "Keep growing with me". Good day to all you wenches and bros on a half shell. J. Raymond #jraymond
