Jute

hums with purpose,

a quiet demand:

hold here, yield there—

an ache, a stretch, a choice.

I am not passive in this stillness.

Every muscle sings its own intention,

every shift of flesh a dialogue

between surrender and control.

To be bound is to be free of the earth,

but tethered to the self,

the weight of my own body

a responsibility I cannot escape.

I balance the art of vanishing

with the mastery of staying whole.

delightful rope workshop this weekend! I did my first suspension - didn't get pics of the suspension, but I did get pics of some of the other ties I did

this one was fun, I was able to scoot myself across the floor using my arms >:3 like an egg with arms

I got hogtied and had lots of fun wriggling around, but I didn't get a picture of that. I did photograph a fun chest harness I did to find a way to use the double coin knot:

there's a monthly rope workshop in my area that I went to for the first time this weekend, lots of fun! got me inspired to do more self-ties, so I might be more active on here

I immediately forgot the name of this tie, but it starts with a single column tie and then attaches to the rest of the leg

and here's another variation, this time including the torso

then the other leg

having both legs tied to my torso makes rocking to stim extremely satisfying

also learned how to make a hip harness (which I forgot to take photos of) and a chest harness (which I did take photos of)

still working on figuring out the optimal chest harness placement that doesn't cover up the scars or the nips (nips for aesthetics, scars for safety and aesthetics)
