"We are lovely and full of desire, we die so many times and come back here, to cross paths. I didn’t fall off the roof, I was pushed. I want neither revenge nor relief. I crave no rescue. >
in all seriousness - love the piece, the way it ambles along from room to room, the way it reminds me of what i've loved about his work before (war of the foxes anyone?) while still being new

long overdue but one of my poems, "false summer", was featured in the cherry moon anthology from @gasherpress last month! i wrote this piece in first year about how it felt to be 18 in an unseasonably warm april, lonely, never alone, and disconnected from something you can't name
i’m a feminist until a hot man offers to put my carry on suitcase in the overhead for me. at that moment i’m just a girl who cannot possibly be expected to lift the big heavy object over her head !
