It’s 9am and I can’t get that coffee cake off my mind. I know it’s not the best fuel for my body, but I JUST WANT IT. I’ve already gone off protocol this week, so Fuck It! But it’s less about the protocol and more about the pleasure. Usually, I wake up early, do yogaContinue reading “Quick Fix”

Surrender
Across the way a man is seen falling from the cliff. He wears all black. He spreads his arms out wide, as if flying. I look away and my thoughts turn to grey. The others say he slipped. I think, he must be unafraid of dying.
Critic
Oh, hello there, Stephen. I recognize your scent, your taste, your touch. You’re hanging onto me like a backpack or a koala cub. I shake furiously to try to get you off, but you are a stage-five clinger. You have impeccable grip. So, it seems we’re stuck together. In which case, it’d be in bothContinue reading “Critic”

I try to think, but it seems someone has turned the volume up. I’m swimming in sounds, confused where it’s coming from. My bodyContinue reading “Escape”
Morning Meditations
I wake up and I can feel my stomach, my guts. It feels empty. I can also feel my heart in my chest, which in contrast, feels full.

My Soul is the Color Blue
My soul is the color blue. Not dark blue like the night sky, and not light blue like the day sky. The color of tropical water blue, with a little bit of green. It’s the second gradient of blue on the east shore of Lake Tahoe, where the lake bottom is still visible but youContinue reading “My Soul is the Color Blue”
