*flails* I just don’t know how to even react. Awkward...

LIKES her? LIKES? HUH?
*meep* …yes apparently I know people who like Hannah. Color me surprised.

poem #409

She ran a hand through her hair expecting a rainfall of skin some separate strands. Instead, minnows swam quicksilver darts through the narrow streams between her fingers. The next day, seaweed silken curling across her palm....

Ten Facts about Reproductive Health in the... →

I won’t go back to your last years in institutions, where you slugged a nurse and refused to eat anything but chicken in a mug and soda crackers. Before death, we can boil down to what has been the worst in us and then our grandchildren must be trusted to forget. Ruby, I’ll go way back to the...
