(i’m in the process of migrating posts over from my more risque blog and merging that writing into my current incarnation) I don’t know if Mercury is in retrograde or Venus has a heavy influence in my chart… But I happened upon a former “I don’t know what to call him” pics on Facebook. And…

freestyle 7/26
sometimes, just sometimes the night encompasses me and I find myself recounting moments in my head that I was certain my heart had forgotten I remember the sound of your laughter Or hear the tone of your voice in the quiet the memory of the way you looked at me or how comforted I…
Oxygen (NaPoWriMo day 22)
Her lonely is palpable Solid An entity unto itself A weight pressed down Nightly As naked as newborn skin Supple Fluid Void of love Full of fear This lonely lies in wait Vacillating Until she is in her most Vulnerable state Shallow breaths Body at rest Heart slowly beating Beneath her breasts This lonely knows…
This Is a Play (NaPoWriMo day 18)
This is a play On words A play On feelings A play Relationship Because this shit ain’t real This a play On connection A play On affection A play On togetherness Because this shit ain’t real This is a play On spending time A play On sexual chemistry A play With shared history But this…

The Fire, In and Out (NaPoWriMo day 13)
You should have You should be You should do … so much more. Too smart Too funny Too beautiful … to be this. Apply yourself Reinvent yourself Promote yourself … why can’t you? Your heart Your brain Your mouth … all too big to fail. I’m the curator of my own potential The guardian of…
Therapeutic (NaPoWriMo day 5)
It’s my release My gathering together My focus Push and pull Thick and heavy Hard Soft Whispers and shouts Lust Kisses Nibbles Bitten Eruptions of wetness Deep breaths Quick sighs Low moans Hands on skin Mouths open In ecstasy Therapy
Storytelling (NaPoWriMo day 7)
