she called her sword 'starscape' and it took me a million miles away every time we fought. and backfooted I lost, every time, to say nothing of my jealousy. I named my sword 'planetary' but it was just landlocked and lost in a lonely galaxy. an apt metaphor, given away. stargazing #starscape #vss365

the #progenitor of the word breathing heavy gasping, pained and raucous, joyous all the same, emotion escaping yet unable to pass that passion trapped in one body to a neighbor, so close so far they found a way sought precision built together a shared vision through sound the word #vss365 #poetry

my #mechanical heart ground to a stop before it ever started, and it took more than fuel to get it moving. it was a newfangled model, computerized, and turning it off and on didn't work. I fiddled with the programming, taught it the logic of love, and let it go. it pretended to work... #whistpr

liminal love like a tiktok of a long abandoned hallway going on forever, we're never getting anywhere but we can't stop, it's not like our doors are closed they just lead to nowhere and we're both lost, so lost #liminal #love #vss365 #poetry

parallels/parallel brains have a peculiar way of picking parts and picking apart: I can see a ghost of you glowing in all her wonder, but covered in pall, monument to my insignificance then. I know we weren't ever that far apart but my gray matter is scarred with the gap I imagined #parallel #vss365

I saw oomf say they got something "for a steal" but paid way more than they needed to for the FF x MTG starter kit 😭 so I made these quick infographics so people new to MTG (like me!) interested in the FF collab can stay informed and don't pay more than they need to!

I get pulled in arguments, problems, alluring eyes if the air is calm I know something foul is afoot the tire was flat, the cat wasn't fed I'm not at peace without a crisis I know god has a spoon, stirring crises, pools with gravity for me to find to be found by one at a time #vortex #vss365

the most primordial is the end. the only thing ever promised by the beginning. but would it weep woe regret and run it back without ever starting if it saw where we've ended up? or where we're going? surely nothing wasn't worse. #primordial #vss365 #panicattack #news #depression

don't shed your pain your loss, your regret they don't define you but they are -you-, in part and those parts can make you so much better if you build with them as blocks, a better you lessons learned, hurt refined into a mind that chooses and pursues a happier life #shed #vss365

skin is the two-sided suit we wear to judgment day. one side scarred and worn by our time in this world, whether earned or merely burdened with. one side unseen till all we've done unfolds and the self we nurtured is shown. all the good and bad hidden inside found and weighed. finally. #skin #vss365

I found someone in the ground, whole, not holey, and quite happy to see me. "Thanks for the save." "Uh, how'd you get...?" "Heavy dirt." "That doesn't exactly-" "Well, see you next time!" Off he wandered. And I, stunned, was left with the cursed prize of 'next time.' #someone #vss365

the room was hungry. I couldn't see but I could tell. it ate my sounds. every one. greedily. never spilled a drop. am I stuck here till it's full? or forever? #speaker. feeder. imprisoned with a purpose. or just losing my mind in the darkness as even my sound is stolen away #vss365

we're drowning in sound from #speaker s of the spoken for platformed voices voicing concerns of only the most privileged there's never any space left in the sound scape for the pitiful cries of those left behind we can tune our ears but most won't and I don't blame them. their pain's enough #vss365
