107 days in the Capital of California
In September the one skinny artist dude sweat and grunted too much so I opted out. Later that month the young gorgeous thug wanted to be a professional escort so I saw him out. In October the potential stalker felon cat fell in love with an idea because of blood’s warmth so I scared him…
The Metallic Aqua Blue Lacquer
I’m fine. It’s fine. Everything’s fine and as it should be and it’s not your fault. It really isn’t. It’s not your fault that I don’t know how to end things like a proper adult. I’m actually quite sorry so sorry that I’m crazy and I hang onto whoever the person is that is least…

Letter #1 My Dearest Adonis, We will all be dead soon. This is fact. And once we are dead there is no guarantee that we will meet again in another world, no promise our souls will float across the ether toward each other, truly, no tomorrow exists. It is incredibly selfish of me, I…

Hearing that news was like being in the Mojave when its 117 degrees Fahrenheit and dropping the last spoonful of Dulce de Leche ice cream ~ cream-side down, onto a Cocker Spaniel hair covered shag carpet- it cannot be retrieved and you have suffered a loss.
