she was driving when I looked over from the passenger seat. one hand on the wheel, the other adding emphasis to her words a telling symptom of her greekness. like a meteor shredding through earthโs atmosphere smashing into earthโs plains and distorting the landscape, i was suddenly and inexplicably hit by the mortality of the [...]

i’m not like you
I wonโt let myself be broken down, shattered shards of a deconstructed self. I wonโt let myself break under the weight of worlds bearing down on my shoulders. But I know one thing. Iโm not like you. You, who refuses to live in the present but picks at the scars of the past. You, who [...]

fuck you, we won’t fight in your wars #staywoke
i find myself exhausted. a bone-deep inescapable tiredness, an amalgamation of frustration, like cleaved nails scouring across a hard textured surface. indelicate obscene and overwhelmingly bloody fucking annoying. Malfunctioning dildos like the, Donald Trumpโs Pauline Hansonโsย and Mike Pence's of the world; stains on the very fabric of that which is the equality and humanity we [...]
