thoughts on the train

Native
Beyond my sleep state This dizzy Landscape of mine, This dream place of mind Holds me, longing, the way A lover or mother might do. But every time the light interrupts like that because Mornings are rude, and ask me to always be Working and pilling away at the Skin of my days, the cotton… Continue reading Native

In the Desert, waiting
Depthless, depthful, never ending, never beginning Echoing into itself, tickling every part of my body’s soul My form moving, accepting weight of…water or breath It’s all in my head; most things are,or at least they come to me in that way My eyes, my fingers, eye contact Touch, breath Dreamsleep, doesn’t matter which side I… Continue reading In the Desert, waiting

Mirrors
If it were possible to ‘try on’ ego death, what do you imagine would be possible? What could you imagine being capable of? Or no longer bound to? Obviously, it is a bit of a paradoxical thought experiment, but it’s the best way I can invite you into this mindset, even if just temporarily. Take… Continue reading Mirrors

Into the Ether

I Could Have Painted That
I started my instagram account about two years ago. I was still in school and just wanted a place where I could keep myself and others motivated to see beauty in the world. I didn’t have time for it throughout the rest of my degree. But after graduating, and failing to find a job, I… Continue reading I Could Have Painted That
