no one ever told me that grief felt so like fear.

just saying, is all..

i really believe

that if i ignore this ginormous pile of clothes in my room

it will magically fold itself.

“At the age of just five i had become one of the fashion industry’s most sought after consumers:

one who takes pleasure in buying something new when they don’t really need it,

and who appreciates the intangible value beautiful clothes have.

Not to mention one who couldn’t afford what they really wanted,strictly speaking, but purchased it anyway.”

David Meagher, Fashion Speak

the Man who isn’t there

today i read a book

about the assassination of a Pakistani dictator.

it was darkly humorous

somewhat morbid

plus it had mangoes (well..)

two thumbs up.

earlier today,

i met a gentleman who has donated his body to science

or plans to anyway.

many interesting conversations today

mount bulla, ghan , audrey.

german.

it has been an interesting day.

i always knew.

you know when you have something you really like

a movie, a song, a book, a place, a something

and someone has to go and ruin it for you

and you can never look at it the same way again

and that feeling, that contentment and joy and excitement and belonging you felt

is now tainted

(i know you know)

i hate that.

farewell my darling

i loved you once.
