1. Wrinkled Pages

skin mellows to the faint smell of soap, and everything becomes silent.
i hear nothing but the ice outside, and habitual buzzing inside my head.
too habitual to be dubbed a noise.


i spend my snow day surrounded by books and work.
and my thoughts, of course.


maybe i should start one last blog?
one where i try to substitute photographs with imagery.
or maybe i can take a daily photo to add unto short messages.


everyday. i must blog everyday.


something, to change the mood.
everything has been looking deep grey lately...
that must change... i must change
into what i presume is a better human being.


why not let others join the ride in this vintage convertible?
i attempted to make a tumblr,
sharing my hopes and dreams to be worn in, and lovely.
but no one cares, and it's a hassle to maintain.


so i shall more-than-likely start another blog.
a blog aspiring to be beautiful.


just like me, aspiring and whatnot.


done.

Quote: Teenage

“Her dilemma was whether to enjoy her youth ‘while she had it,’ or ‘to turn her back on the Road to Popularity, give up smoking and the rest, for staying at home every night gazing fondly and dreamily at the once lively telephone.”

 -Teenage, Jon Savage

colored fingers + chalky bones

Heave

my mouth tastes sour

when i press my tongue between my cheek + gum.

i crush the grit in my molars.

profanity forms a think paste between my pursed lips.

my tongue us swollen

my forehead condenses a fever.

my life is jeopardy

soon i must flex my muscles.

expand my wings,

feathered + tarred.

surrounded by shallow poison

i'm sick of holding my breath.

FACT:

i am going to keep this book of words

(very similar to a dictionary, but less intimidating)

with me and am interested enough to open it,

and find interesting words

that actually intrigue me.

(more-than-likely, i'll post any ones i find interesting)


because i love learning new words,
because when you use them humbly, 
they can cause a rippling curiosity.
keyword: humbly, not in a snobbish 
"i-know-more-than-the-commonfolk" way
in a beautiful way.
