“It reminds you of something a rifle once said, Click! Click! Click! I am empty. Like a freshly minted casket. Empty. Like the gun holster of a dead soldier. You’re empty like his eyes. You with the empty scotch glasses-full astray for a therapist. You must have felt it.”-Versiz
I got to perform on the same stage as him in flint Michigan circa 2006. He was my favorite. Dynamic and alive! -Gracie
I can identify with about 70 % of the physical signs and symptoms of the ‘wrong’ partner given past relationships (informative article). Yet, I don’t like how the title implies gender neutrality, yet is written in heterosexual voice. Also using the phrase ‘wrong’ to describe relationships that didn’t last. I believe that all relationships serve many purposes. An intimate relationship not lasting doesn’t mean that the relationship was ‘wrong’ or failed. In most cases relationships simply run there course. I wish there was space held for these types of unions. Because contrary to western beliefs exes can actually befriend and love each other for a life time after splitting up.-Gracie

Heavy belly. Titties, a dangling pouch of nerve’s. Tiny bowling balls stuck to the sides of neurotransmitters inside my skull. My body is weak after a long week and my mood is irritable like bowels after red lentils. Clouds looming over sunshine. Face-frowned in a grumpy squeeze. Orange moon lined with red river is coming through. Ugh. Ps: And I get to eat delicious soul food this morning with my family, not too bad. -Gracie

Dem daisies use photosynthesis to make they own food. They sprout from all of the water and the sunshine, even on clouded days-they still shine. See here I gots my moon flower, moon pennies, and Priest’s collar growing from my earth. Some rooted- well soiled earth from behind my eyes and my lips. Stands her ground, feet close to the ground in color worship of that which is alive and well and blooming.-Gracie
Aah…like the swift ending of a toddler tantrum I’m over my crush now. Yes, I’m 34 and still get crushes sometimes. For anyone that has had a crush on someone the feeling can be confusing because they’re new to you and you aren’t sure of how to act. My crush gave me some tiny perspective on what kind of love I want when I grow up lol! Was sweet. -Gracie
