You can try dating a dancer. They are muses to watch. As a writer entrances with circles so too does a dancer spin like a sufi. But if you tell one (a dancer, not a sufi) that was a great performance, they will cast you off as an discreditable source. It was good. Not great. You can try dating a dancer but the number of fouettés wasn’t enough/ whip not sharp enough, the developé...

gnade:
1) Never work a job where the bosses don’t respect you. Never be afraid to say fuck it and quit your job, even if the economy is shitty like ours. A fuckface boss will ruin your life and make you bitter.
2) Set your expectations high but be ready to work. Be ready to fight like a wild animal.
3) Be good to people. Even the shitty ones. Let the assholes be assholes. You’ll sleep...

meteoreater:
If you so readily desire a man to lay into you, ma’am, whether with sex or love or both, stop looking for him in the muscle-bound and square-jawed. These men aren’t ready yet. Yes, they sure do look fine with their smooth faces and sharp angles and locked-in careers, but their love and love-making is stale and copied from books, movies, porn.
Real, appreciative, sincere,...

i knew a man once, but only once.
after him, they all just seemed like boys.

after them, they all just seemed like enemies.

Sometimes I get glimpses of light shined on my darkness and even the smallest glimpse makes the struggle seem like it’s worth it. And one day that glimpse will be all light and the darkness will be gone. Not completely. It’ll always be near, but manageable.

Hey guys! Okay, so I just wanted to let everyone know I have a new blog, it’s “invite-only.” A place where my future writings will be blah blah blah. Basically, I just don’t feel comfortable writing on this blog anymore. I’ve been trying to get over this whole issue, but unfortunately I don’t think it’s something I will be able to “get over.”...
Reminders to self (and you) to have a good day:
Don’t doubt a good thing, fearlessly dive in, if you get hurt, oh fucking well.
Kiss your animal a lot.
Sing along to an older classic song, refer to Elvis’ A Fool Such As I, or The Temptations’ My Girl.
Remember that the good is temporary,
so is the bad.
Don’t make your bed today.
Go outside.
Say something nice to someone.
and mean it. Otherwise, don’t say...
When you think you’ve hit rock bottom, remember you’re just digging yourself deeper into your grave if you don’t pick yourself up. When you think you have no one, remember that you do. Even if they are miles away telling you you’re really stupid for even saying you don’t want to be alive. Remember that there are people rooting for you, people who have never even met...

Hello, Tumblr. I know I often ask for you not to reblog my work lately. I’m going to say upfront—this is a post I would very much appreciate you to reblog, I will be forever grateful to you for it.
If you are a constant follower of my blog you have probably already noted that I often make several posts private after small amounts of time. I have never felt like it was necessary to...
We carry ourselves in manners unkempt, fallen from branches of dead trees, moved by the strings attached to our flesh like puppets held by the hands of God or the absence of. Searching for an answer but the answer has all along been inside you, you pull and pull trying to get it out but you’re always pulling at the wrong things leading you to hostility. Guiding that blade to your throat but...
