I am ready to move. In the literal sense, sure. But mainly in the sense that I feel restless. I want to go. Leave- do what I want to do with my life and never look back.
It’s like this stirring that lives in the back of my mind.
Let’s go, go, go.
Then I know the minute I step out there, I am going to be terrified.
Maybe that feeling of… actual feeling would beat this...

Blackface.
anedumacation:
I was going to write a parody of the justifications that people are putting forward for Billy Crystal’s blackface yesterday — “oh, its a tribute! Its not racist!” — by writing a similar justification for Fred Astaire’s turn in blackface in 1936, when he made Swing Time.
That’s Fred Astaire dressed up as Bill “Bojangles” Robinson. Astaire meant it to be a tribute to an artist he...

Our eyes birthed cosmos, supernovas, and black holes.
Our shared glances are everything.
We were the big bang.
I long for the day I feel the sparks flicker at my skin and leave reminders of someone whose eyes burned me the same way I burn and turn and crawl inside of my skin when I can’t feel you.
My skin isn’t...

I can't really quote things to my mother...
Mother: (saying something about something about having to do something or something.) Have you ever heard that? Do you understand?

Mother: ...

My memories smell like earth.
I breath it in until it’s completely occupying the space in my lungs. It crawls up through my throat, into the darkest corners of my mind.
It lies in there somewhere.
Deep inside, where an empty picture frame hangs crooked and under a vase that carries wilted flowers that were once a gift. The chest is dusty and the lock is broken, but I promise...

I can feel it.
I can’t stop it!
It’s taking me over!
It’s… SENIORITIS
