oXane, A colorful break up (2021)

I have not stopped thinking about Hozier’s Abstract (Psychopomp) from Unreal Unearth, and decided to write about how this song makes me feel. So here’s a little something.

—————————————————————

It stared at the odd creature on its hind legs moving closer, what it could not know as hands outreached, closer, towards its limp body - the moonlight above, a halo shone as it closed its eyes.

—

As I reached forward with trembling hands into the dark illuminated only by the soft glow of the moon above, I noticed its soft pleading eyes almost glistening with the tears I had caused, a pain I could only hope to end mercifully.

And in those eyes I saw my own life like a mirror shattered on the ground. I saw my hands over my face as I weeped for the life I have always wanted, and for the life my parents deserved. I am walking hand in hand with my mother as she tries to give her child something to be excited about. My father’s hands are out and is struggling to stay afloat. The cruel world takes everything, it leaves you begging and a silent prayer is casted in the hopes that others will answer. They both survive and cling on to that hope, that I will grow to never face the harshness they had endured. Who am I to deny them an existence that is free from the cruel reality of the world, even if it means being trapped in moments that was not my own doing to begin with?

In those eyes I saw lips on my own. Hands intertwined in secret, bodies pressing and tears I would shed for months to come in hopes that the words will finally escape your mouth again. The pain that turned to anger has now diminished from my mind, as I look back into those moments of shared proximity and spaces from a distance I cannot understand to be my own. I cling to memories that shone and try to not detach my soul from something that shaped me into who I am. I am content with being grateful of the experience, and yet struggle to understand how two hands that fit well into one another can now feel like a speck of dust blown away by the wind.

In those eyes I see my whole life before me. I am stuck in moments I cannot relive. Beautiful moments I cannot remember and terrible ones I struggle to forget. Memories that hurt and healed, come flooding through my head as I kneel on the tarred road, soaking wet. The light from the moon still shines and whispers an embrace of comfort that gives me the strength to carry it off the ground. A new light blinds and my ears are filled with the threat of my life being taken away from me. I have so much to live for and once this memory ceases to matter, it will come again in pieces to remind me of why I needed to live like it didn’t. I choose to not let it suffer anymore and lay it on the side of the road, away from harm and away from the world. I wipe my tears with the sleeves of my bloodstained sweater as I watch it from my mirror. It finally closes its eyes, closed and finally free from this cruel world.

—

“Where am I?”

“You are with me now. Let me guide you. Come, come and see how it shines”

“But, I have to go home. They are waiting”

“I know, but it is time”

“No. I still have so much to live for. So much to see. To do. To give. It cannot be time, it’s too soon”

“It always is, dear one”.

POSTED A SHORT START ABOUT AYIRINE AND LAHIL 👍 THANKYOU TO ENCOURAGERS

i am not reblogging it directly and i likely will not for ouroboros (working title) posts because suicidality is a major... theme? of the work and i want to make that opt-in on this blog. that said this post is short and introductory and not as heavy! many characters in the story have less harrowing stuff going on as well. if things get intense on a given post i'll mention it in my notif here (and ofc tag it over there). thankyou!

posting about my ocs is so.hard I DONT KNOW WHERE TO START. i could just do screaming like when i started telling the gc about them. but like. i dont know. something in my brain (which is wrong) is telling me being earnest and excited about my little guys would make it even more pathetic if/when no one read it or responded (which might well happen bc posting is not socially the same as messaging) whereas like. if i present a cool unaffected "here is my thing. you dont have to read it. it is a surprising gift if you do and tell me you like it" kind of thing. Something something setting yourself up for disappointment before it comes BORROWING GRIEF FROM TOMORROW. its a nightmare its truly a nightmare in my psyche over the most basic aspects of creation PLEASE GOD CAN I BE 14 AGAIN IT DIDNT USED TO BE THIS HARD

Allerbeste Vriend(in)

Vrienden

Vriendschap

Bevriend

Ach, wat stelt het voor?

Welke betekenis heeft het nog

Als je er één van velen bent?

Men je inruilt voor iets beters?

Het van één kant moet komen?

Vriendschap is een illusie

Ik ken dat lied.

En het is waar

Eénmaal kom je tot de conclusie,

vriendschap is een illusie,

vriendschap is een droom

een pakketje schroot

met een dun laagje chroom.

Ik heb veel vrienden

maar geen enkele oprecht

geen éen waar ik mijn hart aan toevertrouw

Dus mag ik dan stellen,

een vriend, die heb ik niet?

Een vriend die van je houdt

die jij vertrouwd

Waar je mee kunt schrijven

die je in jouw armen kunt nemen

mee kunt lachen

en mee kunt wenen?

Waar je geen seks mee wil hebben

maar wel ontzaggelijk veel van kunt houden.

Ach, die heb ik niet

vandaar dan ook dit verdriet.

Geen leegte om mij heen

maar een leeg hart van steen.

Dat schreeuwt om te leven

Om liefde te krijgen en te geven

maar niet één van velen

want dan kan het mij niets schelen

Om verder tegaan op deze weg

alleen, ach, dan maar pech.

Altijd nog beter

dan gekwetst te worden achtergelaten.

The tabloids : a press so British !

By Mathis Alloul

The tabloids are probably the most talked-about press on a daily basis. Always looking for clout, these media are doing everything to get scoops. Let's take a look at the history and current trends of this type of media.

Source : Ownwork

Tabloid journalism is one popular style of largely sensationalist journalism (usually drama, sometimes unverifiable or even blatantly false). Which took it's name from the tabloid newspaper format: a small-sized newspaper. The size became associated with sensationalism. The front page of a tabloid always has big photographs and headlines, it is even called superficial journalism. The oldest British tabloid is The People, founded in 1881 and still one of the most popular today.

As in the United States, some weekly magazines have become increasingly popular since the 2000s. However, their sales began to decline in the late 2000s, partly because of the emergence of the digital press, but mostly because of the scandal involving Nouveau du Monde.

Create and share scandals.

Harry and Megan : the famous couple. The tabloids have clearly decided to take Meghan and Harry as their target. Since their royal wedding in May 2018, the front pages have been following one another. Meghan Markle has always been in their shot, her friends (abandoned), her loves (past), her troubles (family) as been used against her. Why so much hate? Being American is the source of all the issues the tabloids have said. Because she wasn't necessarily cooperative during her pregnancy, the media grumbled. Because Meghan-bashing sells a lot, quite simply.

Princess Diana famously made a lot of headlines in the national tabloids. "If we didn't have anything to sell, all we had to do was take a picture of Diana, enlarge it as much as possible and put it on the front page," confirms former Sun editor Kelvin MacKenzie, considered "the genius of the tabloids”. Some loose headlines: "My life is torture", "I had an affair with Hewitt", "I never liked Dodi", all without any real quote from the main character. The princess was always followed by paparazzi wherever she went. The paparazzi have been widely blamed for the accident that led to Diana's death in 1997 in Paris.

The most widely read and purchased British tabloids are : Metro, The Guardian, The Times, The Mail on Sunday and The Daily Mail (in order).

What is the central theme of the Jacob and Joseph narratives (see textbooks for identification and discussion of this theme) and how does it relate to God’s covenant with Abraham?

Readchapters on Genesis in The Old Testament: A Historical and LiteraryIntroduction to the Hebrew Scriptures, The Pentateuch, and A TheologicalIntroduction to the Old Testament. Also read the entries on “Genesis,”“Abraham,” “names of God in the Hebrew Bible,” and “covenant” inHarperCollins Bible Dictionary.1.Genesis provides two accounts of God establishing a covenant withAbraham (Genesis 15 and 17). What does each account reveal about thenature of this covenant? Consult the notes for 15:6 and 17:9 in NISB.2.How is the character of God’s covenant with Abraham rooted in Abraham’sencounters with God before it (Genesis 12-14) and what do Abraham’sencounters with God which follow (Genesis 18-22) reveal about thiscovenant relationship?3. What is the central theme of the Jacob andJoseph narratives (see textbooks for identification and discussion ofthis theme) and how does it relate to God’s covenant with Abraham? Notewhere and how this theme comes to expression in these two narrativesections of Genesis.4. How is God’s covenant with Abraham linked toacts of God recounted in Genesis 1-11? How do the genealogies inGenesis signal connections?

me when im rotating the familial relations of the words history and memory and idea and story

you know how theres things that exist in the world that are autonomously a poem. i think word etymologies can be poems. i think the para-human* evolution of packets of language and meaning collected into a web is just so clearly a poem

*alongside us, requiring us, carried by us to complete their life cycles, like pollen on the bee, like microorganisms' eggs on migratory birds

Na mijn Covid ziekte

speel ik met letters en woorden

omdat praten mij te zeer vermoeid

en toch kan ik zo verwoorden

wat mij dan boeit.

Schrijffouten komen wel steeds meer voor

de flow ben ik kwijt geraakt

maar rustig ga ik door

Te schrijven over wat mij raakt.

In mijn brein weet ik precies

hoe ik het wil verwoorden

Welke woorden ik dan kies

om anderen en mijzelf te kunnen bekoren.
