The book jams // Pour words // The beauty of things was born before eyes and sufficient to itself

Hi hi hi! It's been a million years, but are you guys ready for A MILLION RAD BOOK THINGS

I'm gonna go ahead and cut here because this post is HUGE, so keep reading if you care about The Book Ramblings

Just a quiet little poem + some silliness // (Giant book post soooon)

Bower

I guess I take a little while to unravel
slow-woven nest
I'd rather build than travel
but this songbird when she sings
says none shall ever clip my wings
a cage would weight me straight into the gravel

P.S.

Haunts

I still find myself haunted by red trucks, and the gravity of complicated dreams. The morning is calm and distant; it is weightless and clear and cool. Someone is making coffee. The squirrels' chase and chatter, an early sprinkler's clatter:

chhhk

chhhk

             chhhk

                         kkkksssssshhhhhh

Far away, I am giving up the revolution; I am settling on terms, I am ceding ground. I remember your back, curving, digging a cat's grave, stooped in sorrow. I think of other ghosts -- presences measured solely by the weight of their own nonexistence, an empty outline suggesting the shape of what's missing. Other ghosts.

morning lingers

Got life

HAY DOODS. I've been wanting to hop on here again for awhile, but...I feel like there's so much to catch up on (too much). It's been too long!

I've been doing a million things, some of which includes slowly setting up art stuff on tumblr. Other things include projects at work, making it to work(!), balancing out and buckling down, sitting still and running around.

I really need to start posting regularly again -- if only to decompress my brain a little bit. I started doing yoga? I've done yoga once. I've been reading a llloOTTA GOOOD SHIT OMG. I was gonna just slather pictures of books and walls of text on this post, but there's...just too much, and I should really do writeups for the good stuff. Also I might have a giant anime mish-mash post soon? I mean can we TALK about Konosuba

We have a new roommate, which is amazing. My brain is sometimes still trash, which is not.

huhuhuhuhuhuhuhu

Someday I'll have the patience to write (more) about this movie and book and how fucking rad they are.

 ....aaaand that's it for me for now, I think

I, I can't sit still, 'cause

I'm no mountain

I, I can't sit so still, 'cause I'm no mountain

I can't sit still forever
