insouciantly: This is a fabric design I created using the text from Neil Gaiman’s poem “I will write in words of fire.” I want to make a dress with it, printed on silk, super flowy, with a red underdress. I’ll add it to the project list of things I’ll probably never get around to…. He wrote it for a friend’s tattoo. You can read the story here. You can buy prints of the poem and the art here. This is what it says, because even though it’s really pretty it’s also very hard to read (especially near the center of the spirals): I will write in words of fire.I will write them on your skin.I will write about desire.Write beginnings, write of sin.You’re the book I love the best,your skin only holds my truth,you will be a palimpsestlines of age rewriting youth.You will not burn upon the pyre.Or be buried on the shelf.You’re my letter to desire:And you’ll never read yourself.I will trace each word and commaAs the final dusk descends,You’re my tale of dreams and drama,Let us find out how it ends.

I will write in words of fire.
I will write them on your skin.
I will write about desire.
Write beginnings, write of sin.
You’re the book I love the best,
your skin only holds my truth,
you will be a palimpsest
lines of age rewriting youth.
You will not burn upon the pyre.
Or be buried on the shelf.
You’re my letter to desire:
And you’ll never read yourself.
I will trace each word and comma
As the final dusk descends,
You’re my tale of dreams and drama,
Let us find out how it ends.

J’adore ce film.

ICH LIEBE DICH! If that’s wrong, blame Google Translate for spreading false information, and me for being too lazy to look it up properly.

Aftermath: A Freeform Poem

In that moment when everyone’s looking I can keep it in.
Focus.  Focus on what’s in front of you.
In that moment I can hold it together.
But as soon as I get back to my room
In that moment I fall apart.

shaky sweaty
too warm too loud too clumsy too fast too much

Focus. Focus on what’s in front of you. 

was i like this all night
and i just didn’t notice til now
i thought i was in control of myself
but now i’m too lost
within myself
to know 

Focus.
Focus.
Focus.

why do i do it
always do this
now i have it right here at my fingertips
always have this
looking at a shadow that can’t look back
always know this

Stop.
Tomorrow, you’ll be all right again.
But for tonight, just smile and

breathe.
