Split lip. Blood on my teeth. A forest that spreads like her legs on fresh linen as the animals wave hello from deep within. Smooth skin. Small ankles. Wine and trees and foxes and owls that howl and toot as we merge beneath grasping branches. Brunette. Blond. Tingling toes and eyes that search for… Read more

Stories regarding half-eaten stars. Myths of your meaning to me and the touch of your fingers on my chin. Shadows of shadows. Flashing lights and the echoes of your cries as you curl into a ball at 4 am all alone and so close to the other side. Does anyone know the difference between the… Read more

Bare-footed in a field of corn. Crushed flowers beneath toes that taste of marzipan. It could be fantasy, or maybe yesterday. You in a dress with a waist that fits the shape of my hands. You with shaved legs so smooth it’s like kissing silk. Candles. Yasmine. Absinth. Let the water run down our… Read more
