I was not meant to work, I was meant to run through an aged, decaying mansion lit only by the intermittent flash of lightning outside impossibly tall windows and the candelabrum in my hand, my gossamer nightgown fluttering around me like moths to the flame.

You long for breathy intonations of a lover, you receive hollow compliments scraped, sludge-like on a spackle-knife from what might have been echoes of real feelings once, but are now sewn together, empty-eyed platitudes

If you’ve seen Dark, you know that’s a powerful statement.

If you haven’t seen Dark, what the hell are you doing?! Get off this website and don’t come back until you have your messy life sorted and priorities straight

He changes his mind every day. I stopped paying attention to tariff talk months ago. It was easier keeping track of the family trees in Dark

The land that time forgot (aka my back yard)

There’s a lot going on here—big dark pine trees, clouds of all forms tinged yellow by afternoon sun, a wild black and white Boston terrier, yellowing leaves littering a patchy lawn, an over grown garden, forlorn looking fence posts, a low shed with a flat roof, dead trees, a half-built deck; bright colors, wild ideas.
