Beauty

Beauty is

Not hiding being a thick mask

A thick layer that is not you.

Beauty is

Not wanting to be someone's doll

Someone's plaything

We are not here for decoration.

Beauty is knowing what you want

And not being afraid to get it

And not caring what's trending because we are not trending

Women are not trends

Beauty is not the stereotype

Beauty is intelligence and talent

Being good at what you love

Loving what you are good at

Branching out and trying new things

And always giving it your best shot

Not making it a joke.

Beauty is how you are to other people,

Especially other women.

Why turn on each other

When we're all we have?

  • Festival

    Long day

    past where morning sun shines and into the dark huskiness of night

    fluorescent lights beating down 

    then flickering off

    a fanfare

    a reflection

    a redemption

  • Instincts

    Some things are just instinct

    like when I just ran to you

    as soon as I saw you

    and hugged you for -

    oh yeah -

    the first time

    very very platonic of course

    you're my big brother.

  • Flying solo

    Your solo is like sun shining through the clouds in my heart

    it's like a platonic ballad

    it's like you are playing

    through first loves

    and forbidden loves

    and grass in the summer

    and crunchy chips
