brief nighttime reflection

I’ve spent the whole morning looking for a lost key that would open all the doors. It was like waking up small cuts in the throat, like searching for the past and remembering the pain. Another thing crossed off the list, but was it worth coming back home? Will it help to bang your head against the doors? What we do is shameful, it’s shameful to neglect what we have around Walking back home, I unplugged myself and looked up at the sky. It was 8:34 PM and there were a few stars. I realized the trap - dispersion. I don’t know how long it’s been since I last looked up at the sky - usually, we gaze blankly down, the deepest point of a screen.

Riding on the back of a motercycle

reflection in the drivers helmet has seen my tears stream, my voice sing, me smile, me blankly stare ahead. rearciew mirrors point to me in a private side-reflection. lately i have been riding on the back of my mothers motercycle. she drives and i look all around me. the beautiful paragraph i just wrote i accidentally clicked away and now i feel foolish and stumbly. never that on the back of a motercycle, everything passes you, and all you can do is feel what it is like to be you in that very moment. the only thing to do is hold on, straighten your back, and feel the wind rush beneath your feet. React to everything as you would, look at your reflection, then watch the ever changing scape around you. make deep eye contact and silly faces and truly kind smiles and spread your energy. sing and caw at birds, driver-pending. most recently my mother drove us to a tunnel i am considering singing infront of others in, and on the way back i held on with ine atm like a horse, and yhe other held up high with a bouquet in my hands, letting the wind press the flowers into my palm so that they did not fall. i am like lady liberty but very much alive. next time i will hand out flowers then whizz away. so much better to be the passenger and enjoy the view, i get to stay in my ditsy brain, calm, spirited. (i truly wrote the most beautiful piece in response but accidentally deleted it and this feels so inadequate, but i just wrote and relived beauty, then tried to relive my relive, so, life is your best writing getting deleted. heres a pic)

been on my mind latley while taking evening walks

i used to chase rainbows walk a few blocks maybe then turn around cause i always knew it was fruitless now i do the same for sunsets  try to stay up for sunrises i never succeeded but i always look back i keep swinging and dreaming of the sun rise i never saw all i have is the orange horizon that never finishes its downfall i close my eyes and listen to the cicadas i take a deep breath and ask god to change  but i open my eyes and the sun isn't set hours after it was supposed to my legs are tired but i wish to swing my head hurts but i can breath the car lights blind me and i hope they don't think of me  the bright fluorescent lights highlight my growing roots not blonde but not entirely brown dull and indecisive  so the next day, I walked further, I tried to see the sun for a better angle since I once again missed the rise I seem to have walked quite too far, so the sky was blank, covered by trees and high skylines so I go back and turn around feeling the cars go by me almost hitting me each time, and I immediately regret that I didn't walk even further to see what was beyond the bend, maybe the trees would clear away and i’d finally see the set from a perfect angle I hope one day I'd find myself back to a tall mountain Ridge where I could see the fall and theoretically the rise all by myself and nothing else in mind but i didnt take advantage when i did have that perfect spot

sweat

firstly - it’s the natural scent for attraction. secondly - shows that you’ve been working hard or working out, people, who do that have ambition and great strength. second and a half - also sweat from dancing or being sexy is cool. final - just sweating shows that you are a healthy person, your body is working, it’s part of the bodily water cycle. addition - i‘ve heard that stress sweat is stinky

magazines (newspapers too)

they will have a comeback. they’re kind of like a healthier media + it looks swag when i read it in public doesn’t hurt my eyes as much, develops my attention span, cuz it’s not a book, which requires quite a commitment.
