mostlyfiction:

Love isn’t about
fucking each other
at any opportunity.

It also isn’t about
how many months
or years
that you’ve been together.

To me,
love is about
being able to see light
inside of the person
who knows nothing
but darkness.

“It’s sort of like if you have two kids, and you give one of them a cookie and the other one half a cookie. Then you give the kid with half a cookie another half a cookie to make it even, and the kid with the whole cookie starts to scream about how it’s not fair that the second kid got ‘two cookies’.”

snubbs:

“Prisons do not disappear social problems, they disappear human beings. Homelessness, unemployment, drug addiction, mental illness, and illiteracy are only a few of the problems that disappear from public view when the human beings contending with them are relegated to cages” -Angela Y. Davis

“One of my goals in thinking about redefining the way we view relationships is to try to treat the people I date more like I treat my friends—try to be respectful and thoughtful and have boundaries and reasonable expectations—and to try to treat my friends more like my dates—to give them special attention, honor my commitments to them, be consistent, and invest deeply in our futures together.”

“I do not
regret
that
I am
imperfect.

In each crack
there is
an orchid
growing

and chocolate
serves
me
when

I
slip
from
grace.

I do not
relish
perfection
or sainthood.

Flying
through
this
existence
as
myself
I honor
all
the
fierce
edges
I have
made
for
myself
and
the conundrums
I have
made
for
you.”

Loud. Loud. Loud

for the unbelieved

I check my facebook page 3 times a day

for the sole purpose of making sure

I have not accidentally posted a nude photo of myself.

I read my emails 14 times before pressing send

to ensure I have not written something in the email

that could convict me of a crime.

Before taking the stage

when asked if I allow flash photography

I always want to say NO

because I’m terrified flash photography will give me epilepsy.

I know it doesn’t work like that.

Still,

I never eat nuts on an airplane

out of fear that I will suddenly develop a nut allergy

and if I have to asphyxiate

I don’t want it to happen at 30 thousand feet.

Twice in the last two years

I’ve been de-boarded from a plane

for running screaming down the aisle

as the plane was taking off.

I can’t walk through San Francisco without worrying

my indigestion is the beginning of an earthquake.

I brace for tsunamis beside lakes in Colorado. I’m not joking.

The last time I saw Niagara Falls- I couldn’t take it.

It was too much much.

I had to plug my ears to look at it

I had to close my eyes to listen.

Generally, I can’t do all of my senses at the same time….they are too much much.

Like if you touch me without warning, whoever you are,

it will take everything I have to not hate you.

Imagine your fingers are electrical sockets

and I am constantly aware that I am 99 percent water.

It’s not that I’ve not tried to build a dam.

Ask my therapist who pays her mortgage.

My cost of living went up at 5 years old

when I told my mother, “I have to stop going to birthday parties

because every time I hear a balloon pop

I feel like I’m being murdered in the heart.”

A few years ago a balloon popped on the stage where I was performing.

I started crying in front of the whole crowd.

I plugged my ears and kept repeating the word, “Loud, Loud, Loud.”

It was super sexy.

That’s what I do….I do super sexy.

Like when I ask the super cute barista 11 times,

“Are you sure this is decaffeinated.

Are you sure this is decaffeinated?

Are you sure this is decaffeinated?

Are you sure…”?

Yes. I drink decaffeinated and still jitter like a bug

running from the Bright, Bright, Bright.

I once spent four years wearing a tight rubber band hidden beneath my hair

so my brain could have a hug.

These days when no one’s looking

I wear a furry fitted winter hat

that buttons beneath the chin,

and I only ever wear a tie

so when I convince myself I’m choking

my senses have something they are certain they can blame.

As a kid I was certain I would die

by way of meteor falling on my head.

I’d go whole weeks without looking up at the sky

because I didn’t want to witness the coming of my own death.

I started tapping the kitchen faucet 7 times

to build a shield. - - - - - - - It worked.

I never got touched

by anything that left a mark

that anyone but me could see.

See, all of my scars are crop circles.

They said I snuck out in the middle of the night

and put them here myself.

They were not right.

And the only thing that hurts

more than being hurt

is being hurt and not believed.

It makes everything inside you

think everything is the enemy,

til you finally decide Fear-

Fear is your only ally,

is the only thing that will consistently show up

with a plan to keep you safe

every second

of every minute

of every day.

I fucking love this.
