Many sweet birds flying high
In the pale blue sky
Sun gently illuminating
The invisible electromagnetic fields of trees
Dawn coming on

Today again
I felt sharp pain
In my body, in my chest
Today again
I heard the same phrase
“You are ugly”,
Go look into the mirror straight
Today again,
I felt rejected dejected
“Am I so unworthy”, I asked again.
The mirrors narrate a tale of woe
From the unhealed part of me
My bosom cried, my eyes dried
I don’t take it personally anymore
For i am servant
Preparing for the next life
What people say is just a version of their eye
What i look
Is how i was fashioned,
What i do should please the creator not the eyes of the
Creation…..

ghost
and as i look around
and see the mess i have created
full of love and light and happiness
i cannot help but be proud
because at least i am no longer
a ghost of who I used to be
finally
i can be free

song of the spring.
in honor of the first day of spring, here’s a new poem.
Tumblr media
In spring, I kiss tulips to practice for the real thing.
I’ll affix bachelor buttons to my sundress, dab bee balm behind my ears and on my rosebud cheeks,  while I wait  for my lavender lover  who left grass stains on my heart.

loser. [i don’t win]
by soup
i’m ripping my hair out
but i’m breathing slowly
everything about me is screaming
but my body is so quiet
how far do you have to go
to get
here?
and i wonder
how i can
if i can
reverse this

A short comic I made about my experiences as a seasonal worker, and the way places change you.

I whirled in smokes
the essence pure
the stars aligned
the night ruled
the planets still
the curled smoke
pure touch of the skies
the smoke felt, the skies kiss!
the skies and smoke
together built a
crown majestic!
I love my essence
for it is but a piece of galaxy
that i explore through
my sensory organs!

invincible
at random times
throughout the day
i remember
just how in love with them i am
and suddenly
my world calms
ive never been loved like this before
so entirely
so passionately
that even my soul
feels invincible
this love-
our love-
is a song
with a melody that moves
even the smallest atom in existence
so this is love
so this is what makes life divine

Somniis Vivis - “you live your dreams”.
written: February twenty-seventh, 2023.
Tumblr media
If I don’t sleep at night, my dreams find me during the day. The deepest of desires blurs the line between divine suffering and what enchants me so deeply about this frightful dream of mine. All the lavish loves, violent hates and the wound on my soul that never seems to heal.
I sought the solution to a world you created which was too small for me.
The warm smile of the sun on my face in the glow of a new day betrays the silence initiated by mystery. You spoke to me in rippling lavender lies, filling in the blanks of this cursed nightmare as you took a bite right out of my seedless, pomegranate heart, sampling my pain, saturated in scarlet drops of love that ripen into obsession, then, into madness.
Enemies press on my plum-colored bruises; growing pains ignite the pungent taste of blood – the same that waters the laurels that put down roots in my mind – but only a friend can stab from the front. I have thrown myself on the mercy of one too many swords and my back has finally given out, but some moments aren’t meant to last.
You might see through me, in the shafts of light, while they call for you, an age-old melody to tighten the noose of a betrayal distorted by distance. Red roses bloom from where you cut me down to size, striking glory instead of gold, and just before the last petal falls, my body is cold.

[image id: a four-page comic. it is titled "immortality” after the poem by clare harner (more popularly known as “do not stand at my grave and weep”). the first page shows paleontologists digging up fossils at a dig. it reads, “do not stand at my grave and weep. i am not there. i do not sleep.” page two features several prehistoric creatures living in the wild. not featured but notable, each have modern descendants: horses, cetaceans, horsetail plants, and crocodilians. it reads, “i am a thousand winds that blow. i am the diamond glints on snow. i am the sunlight on ripened grain. i am the gentle autumn rain.” the third page shows archaeopteryx in the treetops and the skies, then a modern museum-goer reading the placard on a fossil display. it reads, “when you awaken in the morning’s hush, i am the swift uplifting rush, of quiet birds in circled flight. i am the soft stars that shine at night. do not stand at my grave and cry.” the fourth page shows a chicken in a field. it reads, “i am not there. i did not die” / end id]
a comic i made in about 15 hours for my school’s comic anthology. the theme was “evolution”
