POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

but, i still do coke
and candy.

midday thinking found me inside a melatonin-induced illusion. dessert: an extra magnesium gummy. occasionally creating a lucid dream. i sleep had a really large party. (as per standard living.) this one varied specifically. drinking didn’t count that day, so drink i did.

was the dream, sweet?

in the past 12 years and one day, i’ve gone from careless to carefree. (although i much enjoy controlling “creative bobs” a bit.) no longer having to puzzle together my mornings after midnights is refreshing. i’ve gone from enjoying moments, to absolutely enjoying life.

as the decisions i tend to make are poor, the better was suggested for me. a gentle-friend’s mouth over deep house and his mild sober experience and a sentence that shifted my impressionable reality.

“you probably shouldn’t drink.”

so, i stole his idea. as great artists do.
and, i didn’t. anymore.
drink.

the decision was not mine, but chance in choice consumes me daily. my experience with the universe shapes in different forms, often in the breeze after i’ve climbed something bigger than me. endlessly forgetting and relearning daily. (trying to eat sprinkles in moderation can’t be taught to a girl like me.)

oh, and that dream i was telling you about before i changed lanes, without the blinker again: turned, as i was driving us to get nuggets and things at micky d’s. over-ordered and returned to the kitchen counter after sobering up with a hot n spicy, surrounded by remnants of donna summer and filler friends while the gatsby mounds of confetti were swept, the drape, pulled back.
i turned to frank and said.
“i really liked to drink.”
between french fries he replied.
“and you always will.”

like mother, like… — a collection of underrated b roll footage, that is candidly, them. (the reason i’m dressed last and occasionally cancel plans.) not your average “mothers” and i am proud they are exactly that.

happy sunday to anyone responsible for something other than themselves. and to all the MAMA’s — thank you for “having” us.
you deserve more than a day.

because it shouldn’t be about “who loves you.” it should be about how you love. how you try to stay present in every moment with the people that matter to you, how you make an effort to ALWAYS DO GOOD and leave “valentine’s” where ever the wind blows you. not flowers, unless you choose that too. (and also. buy them for you!) but, sprinkle the town with sugar and kindness and smile at strangers because you never know what they are going through. the world needs us to love harder and turn up the playlist to raise it’s roof. dare i say “FAKE IT”, slightly? (as im not one to drink that color juice.) that. or take your damn “pills.” — and all these twisted words just to say: from sunday to sunday, “i love you.” taken in Tucson, Arizona by @whyldwest

been on an extended “party” bender. @same birthday suit, @fridaypilates to counter balance the amount of sweet consumed. @thriftyicecream before noon, sprinkles from @carvelicecream with a spoon, partly cloudy sun—sitting with lane after sharing extra pulp orange juice. tres leches wedding cake snuck straight from the fridge, the second wedding— neopolitan, all five foot two scooped, left in take-out boxes eaten in lue of “service in room.” third times a CAKE, without forks by the pool. i’ll give up sugar again on @mondayswimwear , but this is some kind of wonderful. by @whyldwest

i can’t wait to have my color back.
sharing is a lesson taught and learnt in love.
they say hearts know no bounds,
but you’ve scribbled over most of my outlines,
with a crayon that didn’t properly match.
she has been “my kid”
since i was young enough to push her swing,
and old enough to know that possession
is nine—tenths the law.
mine,
40–Love.
wagner won full custody of white last september,
and he stole her heart.
it’s a scene to see marriage at first sight,
in a skybox.
(the romance drew me to weddings “back then” but found lust with a shelf—life past cake and a last dance.)
cut from wimbledon to ballet—
(a topic i can better decorate.)
lights, on a whole new stage when your
“dress up doll”
is cast as clara, nutcracker, sold out
opening night.
me, last to take my seat,
front row,
stuck behind the scenes
perfecting the stained silk around her ankle,
(because, isn’t the process the pointe?)
and first to have red roses thrown
as curtains close.
what a show.
|
to my first love,
and soon to ending my affair with white.
congratulations on this new shade of life.
here comes the bride. by @whyldwest
