Hope

Someone told me that people are dirt. That same person told me that if I held an optional fundraiser everyone would just drink and bounce. I anticipated raising about $50. We raised $164.63 that night. I've said it before and I'll say it again. I think person are soil. Thank you so much to everyone who came out and donated out of the goodness of your hearts. The phrase is so overdone, but you all really have helped change someone's life. You're cultivating a fruitful future, knowing that you won't personally be able to reap the benefits of it. And I think that's pretty fucking beautiful.

Wish it was just an April Fool's Joke

Bippody Boppidy Boo
Your spool of a tongue,
Wrapping every inch of my cold skin in the finest silks,
Dressing me up to be so much more than I can live up to.
Midnight.
Snippidy Snip Snip
This-
is the thread I will cut
And we'll unravel. Laced fingers untangle, brains disconnect.
"If it's not in the books just write it in." Cake?
Soufflé.
Rising, ever so swollen.
Then a rush of cold air and
Reality sets in.
I fall flat on my face
