Not for Sale by Mary Clare Powell

I want to be as benevolent as sun — light giving way to other light, pouring out in all directions for any to capture. … Not for sale, and no one can suck in all the sun just because he has the money. No one can capture and package or resell me, but each being can receive new rays every day in a winding coupling of death and generosity. … from Everyday Ecstasy

I'm a hopelessly romantic old soul disguised as a loner for this modern age love.

a new star

#i been thinkin about the asteroid again #i think about the asteroid a lot more than i think is normal #like just the complete randomness of it and how everything changed in literally the blink of an eye #like the dinoss rules the fucking earth and probably still would if space had just been a little bit different #how long did it take the asteroid to reach us #at what point was the impact inevitable #like these sound like scientific answers but i need you to know these are questions that my soul wants answered in poetry #yes the math is cool but can i talk about what tragedy looks like melted into the earth #how power and pain and mourning but also change and new life and a future were embedded in a layer of iridum that spread around the planet #can we talk about how looking at the layers of the earth is the most physical type of time travel there is #can i please talk about that layer of pain #can i mourn when i see it #or am i just a weird kid crying when i look at rocks #ALSO. was parasaurolophus alive when the asteroid hit? i dont think so #but it's too late #yall get to suffer with me #dinosaurs

You just have to say to yourself “I’m not willing to accept anything less for myself than what I deserve. I am smart. I am beautiful. I am a good woman, and I deserve to be happy.

To crave someone's soul over their body is the most profound form of intimacy.
