fairytale

Imagine a lush green forest hiding behind thorns and bramble. With pixies and mystical plants. Where the sun always shines no matter what time of day, and rules and law don’t apply. Where the water is a shade of blue and green, where the frogs sing a song together. At the center of it all sits Mother Nature, Ivy. On her stump, she plays a delicate and graceful song on her lyre harp made of an oak tree. Her soft, dark skin with mushrooms and vines growing from her arms, wrapped around her legs. Her blonde, radiant hair, and a crown made of vinca flowers with watery, green irises that seem to drip and ripple if you stare at them long enough. As she dances atop her stump, she notices you. She reaches out for your hand, and when you ask where she will take you, she only smiles. For she is mute to humans and cannot speak when they hurt or help her. She can only react. Would you take her hand?

 Imagine a world where the most beautiful things could be in your grasp. Would you take that chance?

  • picking up the pieces

    sarcastic jabs and quippy lines

    I hope you know I usually don't mean it

    and I know my best is not enough

    but that's what being human is all about

    I don't have to worry about perfection

    I will overcome compulsions

  • day dreamers

    like shifting shadows moving across walls and space

    I constantly reflect everything and everyone

    daydreamers like to envision a new world

    one where every cog in the machine does its job

    we get tired of being the mirror
