this is a photograph of one of my favorite fountains in Houston 


THIS 
will come as a 
COMPLETE SHOCK

BUT 

HORMONES 
is what does it

first thing said
PREGNANCY 

and I'm 
LIKE 

NOPE 
THAT is 
NOT it

TRY AGAIN 
πŸ€ͺπŸ˜‚πŸ˜…πŸ˜†πŸ€£πŸ˜ΉπŸ€ͺ

view from waiting room 

I was just at lunch
I might be having something 
where my senses 
are idk HIGHTENED

there was a high pitched noise
I felt like it was 
gonna make my head explode

I said something about it 
BUT 
they were like 
NOPE 
don't hear anything 

I went to the
bathroom 
& I almost couldn't hear the 
NOISE 

BUT 
the SMELL of the 
air freshener 
which they probably always have 
BUT 
which I've 
NEVER
noticed before 

almost made me 
HURL

SERIOUSLY 
I don't NEED
NEW sh*t

I'm fixin to 
LOOK it UP
taking mom
to the doctor today 

I hope you have a beautiful day sweetheart πŸ’‹


I haven't done that
seeing things
in the clouds 
for a while

it was a favorite thing to do when I was a kid

I LOVE you VERY much sweetheart 🫢

my brother 
sent me a photo
of an adult bookstore sign
LIKE 
he slipped into my
DMs
& sent me a picture of an adult bookstore 

I'm LIKE 
thinking to myself 

I've been low key
AVOIDING 
his posts
telling myself 

he's NOT directing
WEIRD sh*t
AT YOU

you're just taking it personally 

NOW 
he posts
MORE pictures 

of the same adult bookstore 
WITH CONTEXT
I WONDER 
WHY
NO CONTEXT for me

was I supposed to recognize dad's style
in the adult bookstore sign?!


goodnight sweetheart πŸ’‹ 
I LOVE you VERY much 🫢

I did that
NO DAMAGE 
FACE thing

UNTIL
I was KINDA damage-y
& THEN I KINDA 

FELL OFF
the WAGON 


I've had GYPSY 
by Fleetwood Mac 
in my HEAD 
& I can't 
THINK
of ANY CONTEXT for that


I've got these
PANTS

I had KINDA
FORGOTTEN I had
found em at the bottom of the drawer

they are narrow and tapered and the look
SIMILAR to leggings 

when I wore them before 
I used a shaper 
BUT 
I don't remember WHY I decided to do THAT 

I tried em on
& I like the way they look

SO
I'm LOOKING at MYSELF 
and saying 
YOU 
ARE SURE that you are FATTER now

BUT 
YOU LIKE the WAY you LOOK 
NOW 
without a SHAPER

I don't know 
HOW 
to make THAT 
MAKE SENSE 
yeah
today has been
WEIRD

I feel like
I maybe 
OVERdid the
LAYERS


I've had a whole conversation 
in small bite-y bits
why I could 
think
what I THINK 

politically

I guess is the best way to put it
& HOW
NOT in a cult my thinking is

& am I just completely 
CHECKED out
of the artist group EMOTIONALLY 

if I'm not
WRESTLING the
email list from her and getting it DONE 

I don't THINK it does

BUT 
ALSO
I was going to say

these old broads
BUT 
I don't LIKE 
THAT vibe for THIS 

maybe I told you ALREADY 
and it's not that interesting 

it's just
TWO
of them

my MOM 
was well behaved 

I took her a bag of popcorn 
told her the sodium
some grapes
and 
a chocolate truffle*
*helene throws a meeting

& she HAD all the good 
STUFF 
PLUS
she got to

BASK
in being WAITED on

BUT 
LIKE 
nothing BAD happened 

I just guess it turns out
I think 
one of them
is KINDA a 
bitch

& I guess I needed to
PROCESS

ALL this STUFF 

under the influence 
of some 
UNKNOWN 
cocktail of hormones 


david lynch 
andras
gets ANOTHER 
PUNCH in the FACE 
from me
VIRTUALLY 

I'm still 
feeling kinda bad

I hope you are having a beautiful day πŸ’‹
I just got done with therapy 
I'm in the bathroom 
I don't think I made much sense 
last night

I also have
BREAKOUTS 
& the old woman energy 
was in the meeting 

I was NOT 
in a be amongst the humans
kind of mood 

I hung on
BUT 
I wasn't friendly and effervescent 

BUT 
there was a certain amount of 
DEAR GOD 
I'm old too

I mean 
I don't FEEL 
EMOTIONALLY old
OR 
INTERESTS old

SO
I guess 
there was some 
CONSIDERATION of my own
MORTALITY 

BUT 
MOSTLY 
I was just like
F*CK
I don't enjoy old women 
as a group 

any more than I enjoyed young women 
as a group 


the one I used to work for
who I was working to
get her a day off 
MOSTLY 
she's 
in charge of the artists group now

& she's LIKE 
none of the guest list emails have been entered 
Bob sent out emails

BALL DROPPED 

well the thing isn't happening for a couple weeks 
the last three open studios
takes it back to BEFORE PORTLAND 

I'm sure it wouldn't take
MORE than 
an hour or two
to enter ALL of it

JUST DO IT
there's plenty of TIME 

maybe it makes a difference 
MAYBE not

BUT 
why PLAN to FAIL 

I seem not to have drawn any
CHORES
& I thought about
VOLUNTEERing to do it

BUT 
the IDEA of having to 
coordinate
a computer thing 
with her

I don't care enough to deal with THAT 

I really hope
my judging thoughts were
NOT visible 

I get TWO feedbacks typically

I can read everything on your face

I can't read anything on your face

& I'm NOT sure 
if that's 
SITUATIONAL
or WHAT

HORMONES are 
WEIRD 

if they don't resolve
into BLOOD 

WTF is even going on 


I hope you are having a beautiful day sweetheart 🫢 I LOVE you VERY much 🫢
mystery solved 
with the 
GUT
distress 

HORMONES 

old woman energy 
HIT badly

I had lots of processing 

SORRY 
I didn't talk

goodnight sweetheart πŸ’‹ 
I LOVE you VERY very MUCH 🫢

I LOVE you VERY very MUCH 
goodnight sweetheart πŸ’‹

I was
GONNA 
WRITE 
something 

BUT 
I have been
MISTing 
my MIND 

OR
should I have gone with 
TENDRILing

I was SEEing it
as KINDA 
a ghostly sort of MIST
that KINDA tendrils 
at the edges

BUT 
it doesn't seem to
YIELD 

it's REALLY GOOD 
for ME though

I FEEL like 
that TIME when I'm THINKING that way
HEELS my BRAIN 

when I'm SAYING SOMETHING 
it CONSTRUCTS
a REALITY 

when I'm doing the WHATSIT
I can sorta
FLOAT
in the place 
where all the perspectives 
INTER-MINGLE

THAT 
MAKES it SOUND 
like a multiple 
thing

BUT 
I don't specifically mean
INTERNAL

it's LIKE 

I don't KNOW what it's like
