Things they don't tell you.

Things they don’t tell you about losing your grandfather on a Tuesday night: When you wake the next morning, you still need to get out of bed in time for work, you still have to shower, dress yourself, eat breakfast, brush your teeth and hair; and when your mother calls to check in, you have to comfort her because she lost her dad last night; and when you call your grandmother your voice cannot waver lest you upset her, because she lost a man she's known for seventy years and even though she would never hold it against you, you still feel obligated not to cry;

It's all over the news

It's all over the news, bad news. It comes and goes in heavy waves, and your aunt has cancer. It seems lately that all you do is lose yourself, always seeing graves because it's all over the news. Bad news: this year is still ongoing. It's true it feels unstoppable, and by the way your aunt has cancer— a snake-noose tightening grooves into her neck and throat, giving it its all. Over the news, bad news, you have coffee and chatter moodily— because what else can you do when told your aunt has cancer— Stare silent at the menus, choose the easiest meal to stomach, because it's all over. The news, bad news: your aunt has ca

Kyoto

Traveling to Japan taught me nothing, except for the fear of missing flights, stranding myself in places where I can't read signs, and taking the wrong escalator off a train platform into a department store. The land did the teaching, rolling hills that became mountains in the blink of an eye, rushing past fast as crowds of salarymen filled every vacant seat in every train car, in every city bus, in every office visible to the naked eye or otherwise— hills that became mountains covered in trees and buildings and both, the earth that came to terms with the creatures living on it that came to terms with the earth. The Kamogawa, a lesson

dear sarah, i wonder if sometimes you can still feel the weight of your bed sheet around your neck. heaven knows there were days i could count every thread. last night i was cleaning up my desk, and i found the scissors i used to crack my skin open four years ago and when i went to throw them out, it felt like moving mountains or graves. if you don’t know yet, you’ll learn that some types of grief leave scars—some ghosts don’t know how to stay buried. you will stumble through the rest of your life wondering if you will one day forget how it feels to toe the edge of the cliff and turn the other way. the answer is no

Stop Romanticizing Poets 2K14

This is how I write my poems: You’re blonde and you have blue eyes. You’re the perfect subject for my next great hit, a long rambling epic or a two page sonnet which would start by comparing your hair to rays of the sun and your eyes to the ocean at daybreak. Even if you’re more of a dishwater blonde than sun-colored, and your eyes are less ocean and more sky, I swear I write this poem and think vaguely of you. But here is a secret: I’m not writing a poem about you. I’m writing a poem about the idea of you. And I don’t know if it will be a love poem or a break-up poem or a “please don’t go home

welcome to the real world

1. if someone invites you back to their place for coffee, and you only drink tea, don’t stress: you probably won’t actually be drinking coffee. 2. when the creepy guy from work asks you out again and you think about accepting for the first time because you’re sick of going home alone and you have never learned how to say no, don’t. learn. stand in front of the mirror until you love yourself enough for your skin to fit snug on your body. read about the hundreds of millions of planets out in the hundreds of millions of galaxies and feel so crowded that you’re about to burst all over again. 3. you’re gonna

psychosomatic serenade.

Schrodinger has been writing me love letters, and he hasn’t. he catcalls me from closed boxes while I flip coins trying to figure out what’s breathing, what isn’t. your coffin, floating in earthen rivers, hinges gleaming iridescent as salmon scales, I am sitting here guessing if the cat is dead or alive in that imaginary vacuum, ignoring Pavlov’s set ringtone on my phone - the bells make me think of your throat, how your Adam’s apple rang when you swallowed down another of my placebo promises. I love, loved, you. and I didn’t. Freud keeps dropping business cards through the letterbox asking my mother t

horoscope heart.

Sun in Sagittarius your lips curl like Cupid’s Bow, tongue like an arrowhead, sometimes it would be easier if your aim weren’t so true. Moon in Cancer shorelines make you cry more than sad films, because every shore means a parting, every shore means somewhere else is calling, you will always be the one who leaves first. Ascendant in Leo you love to make an entrance, all grinning teeth and ivory claws, sometimes it is okay to make a quiet exit, when the world thinks itself a lion-tamer, and find a different jungle to call your kingdom.

what to do when the world falls apart.

Step 1. Breathe. Keep breathing. This is always the best way to start anything. Breathe, breathe. Step 2. The first thing people will do is panic. Do not join them. Lock the doors, close the curtains, turn the TV off. Write instead. Write down everything you remember, write about the boy with the crescent moon eyes, the girl who had Austen quotes tattooed in her kisses, the old man who lived down the road from your childhood home, how he carried a picture of his late wife in his tweed jacket pocket, said he got all dressed up every day because he was taking her out on their first date all over again. Write about street fairs, autumn leaves,

She's Not Gone Forever

Her soul's still here Her soul's not gone In the wings of the wind In the first gold of dawn In the joys you share Every break, every tear A frozen rose underfoot In your eyes, dark with soot No flood you pour out No feelings of strife Can extinguish the fire Passion in your life She may hide a while 'Neath the guise of a smile But just give her a taste - With her gifts you'll be graced.

Watching Children

The old well behind the abandoned train depot was a gathering place for children; I sat and watched them, weekday evenings and weekend mornings, envying their ease of company. Their secret languages were a marvel to me, and I strained to hear as they screeched around mouthfuls of stolen candies, crouched over the gaping chasm into which they hurled the wrappers, sweaters hanging off their small backs like the shrouds of crows. Every so often, one or another would glance suspiciously over a thin shoulder, marking me as an unwelcome intruder, and the lively chatter would reduce to the comforting hum of inside voices used in the open air.

it's okay to not be okay

sometimes it’s okay to sit on the floor of the bathroom stall and let your feelings gather- it’s okay to let them pool like a lachrymose lagoon as the inside of your stomach does summersaults; I know these emotions can’t be tenderly released, they’re not soft waves kissing the expecting shore, let them pour out of you like tidal waves- release the tsunami from within you and I know sometimes the tears will sodden your pillowcase, they’ll be juggernauts- those brackish beads cathartically-cartwheeling down your flushed cheeks; but remember how even the clouds may cry tempestuously today, only to make room for m

Dusting Up, Red

my ears unhear the words as if those words, alone cut me from the strip and stamped me, in too mild a steel for this hostile air, edges already dusting up so undeniably red with breakdown but we each corrode in different lies at different rates, our materials migrate into different wars with the eroding shore and shadow of where we happen and stand so unbearably alive animal gamepieces pace the irony cage of our self-defeat, pretending that we own them, that we're capable of owning anything other than what we are- dull stumps, keratinized and driven as hooves into skies of escape, barely alive, but so undeniably human

The Author is Dead

Please, I need your help. We're both in danger. Do you see that corpse in the corner? The one with fluffy red hair? That's the author of this story, and she's dead. If you don't want the same thing to happen to you or me, you need to do everything I say. Okay? Okay. First, turn off the volume on your device. The monster's still here, and it will attack if it hears you. Work quietly now... Good. We don't have words to waste, so I'll sum this up quick: I'm the protagonist. You can call me Proto. The writer invented a creature whose harpoon-like limbs could go through anything. While she was thinking of a way for me to beat it, one claw p
