Kaleidoscope

Potential ADHD

My mind is not a kaleidoscope.

It does twist and turn.

The shapes manipulate and move,

like waves

on a beach

during a storm.

The world turns

on an axis,

and yet I breath

the same stale air

that you, my dear, breathe.

Nothing stays

in focus

that long.

Days whisper

into the echos

of the canyon,

reverberating into my bones

the songs of the past

and the future

I will never have:

a happy ending

with smiles and waves

on horseback.

The world does not stay

in focus,

but my mind is not a kaleidoscope

Jus doin' sum random scrollin'. 📱 - r3al' 🐉 #mambamentality🐍

Call it mindless, yet we all (in some sorta way) do it. It'd been a minute since anything had been posted for Azine. Supposing it appeared as though only reviews about Ye, Drake, Billie, or Taylor were worthwhile, it still felt integral to take my time. I'd go as far as to say that my creative nuances were both amusingly and unapologetically unafraid of patience. Cut to what one could curate as chancing upon the profile for Canadian singer, songwriter, and dancer Kallitechnis's Ardene interview on YouTube. While snuggly lotus sedentary in a lounge chair Kassandra (a.k.a Kallitechnis) sorted words on some pretty deep stuff. (See, I'm the type to keen in what artists fr say alongside of winnowing amid whatever it is they craft.) All her talk about authenticity, longevity, and even therapy, backdrops her latest Single releases, to delicately while devoutly dream weave some of the most sensational late night Trap Alt. Soul/R&B that I'd ever heard. After hours of zoning out on Spotify & Apple Music, I'd seemingly stumbled upon a mound of sound designs showcasing that Kallitechnis latest releases, "KALEDISCOPE LOVE" & "SOFT LIFE, are sonic gems worthy of ethereal shine. 

"KALEDIOSCOPE LOVE" is the most recent release by Kallietechnis.  Lyrically it's the lift off elements of romance dazzled in the depth of the "bedsheet ballets'" that hopefully accompany it. If you tap script Kallie's verses here, it'll literally take your breathe away. This 2024 Soul Over Ego Single release paints a sensual sonata, saturated in the palates of lovemaking by the likes of a Jhene Aiko, Victoria Monet, & fav Kehlani. My cherished over the two songs is the latter 2023 released, "SOFT LIFE", where the copulation carved crooning by Kallitechnics feels more assured in its contour.  Lyrics like, "Cocoa butter kisses on the back of your neck...No ones around, go and say it with your chest." sets up a between the sheet session, where direction details desire and more importantly: pleasures for both parties. The hedonism hails heavy here, and when ya place that alongside of Kassnadra's visceral vocal layerings, you're insatiably sedated into this ‘sensational style of life’ she's sojourning. 

Both releases mode just a mere of the music you can muse through courtesy of Kallitechnis. For me it's the completeness interwoven in the listening experience of these two tracks. Detailing what it takes to call yourself professional in this or any realm is something I valued early on. The attention to detail, care, production, and most importantly the passion, tentpole sound designing success for any act whether indie or not. On that note, Kassandra does something else, almost effortlessly. She ate, and fanged deep into the fact that there are stars who are not signed. Stars: real artists who are crafting carefree of what seemingly fates, what often lacerates acts who sign with labels. Definitively, I'm the late night type. I'm good either playing the pull while out, or layinlow at the cribbo, playlsitin' on the MacBook with Apple TV or YouTube dressing the backdrop. Either in or out, this pair of indie soul sounds soothe both the mind, as well as those other places the sensations may align.😉

everytime i see that you wrote a new fic i pull out ao3 and rub my hands together deviously as if i was going to steal the fic itself. your works r sooo good and that second chapter of want was so yummy. ur version of dream and ink are so messy i actually have to pause and scream into my hands while reading💔 alexa play kaleidoscope by chappell roan 💔

hiiiiihi omg thank you thank you... idk why but it's always a surprise to learn that people actually like my fics- like woah....... someone liked my writing and my ideas..... a real person...... woag...... I'm also glad people are enjoying my take on Dream and Ink (and Drink)- they're so so complicated and messy and are neither platonic or romantic but a secret third thing: worse. they make me crazy. I am actively writing even More fics about them. I'm glad I was able to invoke some emotion while reading because I too. am screaming into my hands when I write them. wailing, even. Dream would be a Chappell Roan fan I think I literally have "Casual" on my personal playlist for him lol. but ohhhhhh Kalediscope is actually perfect for them....... oh........ putting that on the playlist too....... Dreammmmmm I am holding you and swinging you around........

I can vouch for Travelling Man! I have orders from them for Nanchan, How to Survive as a Villian, Nirvana in Fire and Coins of Destiny and they were very easy to order from. If you order the first Rosmei preorders too they do ship with the preorder bonuses!

Just be warned that if you order as a bundle with preorders included from them then nothing will ship out until the last items release date! It's just so they can send the whole order out in one post rather than multiple like Amazon does.

For anyone who wants to order from Rosmei, here's a list of their partners: https://rosmeihey.top/pages/partners-1

I recommend ATOM Comics for Europe, never let me down 💚 Here's a list of books and merch from Rosmei available on their site

..This was definitly not a talk she was expecting, or ready for. She'll probably have to bring this up with her therapist - but for now, she's too tired to really fight back on most of things she was saying.

"...No...." She mumered, pulling out a small stuffed animal from her bag to hug - she needed some kind of support right now. "I'm not trying to soak up negativity - but you just said that there's only human limits - and that people in the future will probalby succeed where I can't. how else should I take that?

I don't want to quit - I would have done that forever ago if I did. Its just running into wall after wall stars making your knees ache after a while."

Her eyes were a kalediscope of colours again, trying to make sense of what she's being told - because she wasn't wrong. And Iyana hated the fact that she wasn't wrong.

"...I'm not an idiot - I am capable. I just am not sure if I'm capable enough for the stuff I'm trying to do. And the more I learn about things, the more it feels like everything's over my head...wait that is calling myself incapable. This is a paradox - "

...She would have to take a moment of silence to try to parse out a resolution for this.

"And this is what I mean. You're so wrapped up in cementing your own weakness. It's like you want to be proven right. Would you like me to tell you that you're stupid? That you're a worthless failure that will never amount to anything, with stupid dreams that are impossible? You seem absolutely determined to soak up every negative idea and feeling like the world's most emo sponge."

"But if you do want to give up, it doesn't mean that the goal was too hard or impossible. It just means that you're a quitter who quit."

"And as for me... Well, you would be better off trying to work backwards from how I did what I did. I've mastered things far beyond what you have, and you could probably find your own way of doing things if you stepped out of your bubble for once. For I don't simply turn people into food, I turn them into sentient masses of quivering bliss as I remake their entire body, gene by gene. In minutes I can turn a person into a sentient cake that produces frosting, and back again."

"But to circle around, this arrogance of yours pisses everyone off. Because for someone who claims she's not smart or capable, you sure love to pass judgement on things like yourself. That's a paradox. Either you're smart enough to know things and thus you can judge things correctly, or you're an idiot who has no business deciding what something can and can't do or can and can't be. Pick a side, basically."

Here we are! I can't abandon this universe I've created, so have a one-shot collection. The first one is up and I'll be posting another every week or two until I run out. I have also started working on the sequel to Man Who Sold The World, because I just can't get enough.

Parsing the honey through splintered teeth

On Friday I barfed out the window of an Uber. I don’t do that. But I did. And it was horrible at first; my friends held me while I cried about chuking on this man’s property and making his job harder. I tried to make it better, I apologized and tried to dump water from my Nalgene on the side of his car door. He said nothing, his foot stop-go-stop-go on the gas, fleeing into the night as I limply poured water over the (scarce) chunks on his door. 

And then I realized I am awesome. Didn’t even barf in the car. Out the window, like a champ. I laid on the beach while my friends dared the Puget Sound in their underwear. 

That is probably the only interaction with that person I’ll ever have in the chance of our brief, overlapping time on this planet. No redemption. I think it’s sad. I think it’s magical. I think it’s beautiful. 

I turn twenty in two days. I have been grieving teenage girlhood this whole year. I realized I don’t feel like a teenage girl anymore though. I feel like more of a nothing yet than a twenty, but we’ll see. 

How do you survive adulthood? Every day I live: I see emotions, histories and futures, truths 

And they are screaming, kicking and seething, antagonistic. One looking at the other. Or, they are sitting back-to-back, never seeing, knowing, experiencing, understanding the other. Touching all the same. 

Maybe it is all about this intimacy. Maybe the exorbitant outbursts and the distant touching is a translation of love. Maybe I’ve been framing it wrong. I’ve wanted to ask 

How do you hold both in your hands and feel something like “this is okay, this is what life is about”? Accepting that humans are everything at once. Accepting that historybefore and presentnow and futurethen are everything at once. 

But maybe it’s not so much acceptance as it is witness. I bear witness to its chaos with my body. The point of holding the tension in your hand isn’t to accept it and feel okay. I think it is to see it in its ugly kalediscopic terrifying infinity and not drop it. I think that act might translate to love. And part of not dropping it is perpetually doing something about it. If something someone just said in class makes you itch, use your words and do something about it. Make art about it, read a book about it. Research is translated in all kinds of ways. Research it. Document it. Keep collecting grocery lists and take pictures of people’s fridges. If you’re gonna barf out the window, barf. 

I don’t think there will ever be right answers. Or, answers. But everywhere will speak when you ask, so I’m asking. I am forever trying to ask.
