I could be
A sword
Held by an
Angel
With all the
Righteousness
Of my
Anger.
#poetry

2026-03-12 18:14:29 UTC

My cage is
Open, but
I’ve forgotten
How to fly.
#poetry

2026-03-11 17:56:50 UTC

The god of
Grief and the
God of rage
Are the
Same being.
#poetry

2026-03-10 18:43:21 UTC

The wound
Will heal
When you
Stop touching
It.
#poetry

2026-03-05 23:49:07 UTC

My heart, my
Hands, my eyes,
My mouth are
Buried shallowly
In these words.
To read them is
To kiss me.
#poetry

2026-03-04 19:26:59 UTC

A thousand
Trillion neutrinos
Pass through
Our bodies
Per second.
Are they the
Ghosts, or
Are we?
#poetry

2026-02-28 23:49:23 UTC

Let light
Pour through
The broken
Places.
Better a prism
Than a wound.
#poetry

2026-02-24 23:33:20 UTC

Legit hate that I cry when I’m mad. I’m not sad, bro. I’m trying not to strangle you.

2026-02-16 20:21:52 UTC

There are
The remnants of
Stellar explosions
In your bones.
The violence of
Ten billion suns
Cradled in your
Precious heart.
#poetry

2026-02-14 05:18:08 UTC

If you’re following me, you’re my Valentine. I will be taking no questions at this time.

2026-02-13 21:07:36 UTC

Stay.
There are
Still stars
We haven’t
Wished upon,
And dreams
Undreamt
Await.
#poetry

2026-02-10 19:23:45 UTC

This is a
Conduit
Through
Which I
Can hold
You for
Just a
Moment.
Hello, you
Are loved.
#poetry

2026-02-09 19:47:44 UTC

Every time
I’ve thought
“I want to
Die,” what
I really
Meant was
“I want to
Live.”
#poetry

2026-02-07 22:19:18 UTC

If we are to know
The light in
Ourselves,
We must first
Look for the
Light in each
Other.

When you remember you’re living in a clown world things start to make more sense.

2026-02-03 01:38:18 UTC

I am a woman of a certain rage.

2026-01-28 19:10:41 UTC

Let my rage
Speak for all
The women in
My bloodline
Who were silenced:
We will not succumb.
Not this time.
We will overcome.
#poetry

2026-01-26 19:44:24 UTC

When surrounded
By murderers,
It is revolutionary
To live.
#poetry

2026-01-23 21:59:48 UTC

There are
Enough stars
In your veins
To ward off
The coming dark.
Just being alive
Is resistance.
#poetry

2026-01-23 01:56:44 UTC

Dissociated so hard I kinda started liking myself

2026-01-20 21:20:21 UTC

Take the
Catastrophe
Of my bones
And remind me
Of the fire
Inside of them.
#poetry

2026-01-20 00:28:04 UTC

Don’t be afraid of big accounts here. One tried to drag me today and it affected my follower count 0%
Speak your mind. Your people will find you.

Starlight travels
Billions of miles
To terminate
Behind your eyes,
And you still find
Yourself unworthy?
#poetry

Drinking coffee til it’s time to drink wine.

2026-01-08 18:12:33 UTC

I am
All full
Of dead
Stars
And
Living
Hope.
#poetry

2026-01-08 01:17:18 UTC

When one
Voice is silenced,
It is our duty
To start
Screaming

I’m the woman of your dreams, except it’s the dream where you fall from a high place.

2025-12-27 06:11:57 UTC

I’m not here. This isn’t happening.

2025-12-27 02:56:26 UTC

Grant us the
Light of
The stars we
Fell from,
And the strength
Of the stone
We will become.
#poetry

2025-12-16 22:00:37 UTC

I will relinquish
The stones of
Grief I’ve carried,
And let love
Surface.

I’m 2 years older than Danny Glover was when he said “I’m too old for this shit.” That’s how it’s goin.

2025-12-15 21:06:44 UTC

So many people are hurting. My most sincere wish is that light finds you, right now wherever you are, and reminds you there’s still hope.

2025-12-02 22:51:37 UTC

Let go
All pretense,
And remember
Who you were
Before they
Told you who
You were going
To be.
#poetry

2025-11-30 01:45:04 UTC

The more
You listen
To the voice
Inside that says
“Hope lives,”
The louder
It gets.
#poetry

2025-11-27 20:59:42 UTC

Fuck this colonizer holiday!
I’m still gonna eat tho…

2025-11-22 21:59:47 UTC

Give me the sky
Full of the corpse light
Of distant stars to
Guide me back
To myself.
#poetry

2025-11-19 23:52:30 UTC

The singularity
Spoke in explosion,
Said “there will be
Light, of which you
Are a part.”
#poetry

2025-11-15 01:53:28 UTC

Your skin an
Accusation
Against the
Hard world,
Without mercy,
We make such
Soft violence

When I was a young girl, I would have waves of feeling like nothing was real, as if I was some other form of life looking in on mine and finding it strange. I thought it was a superpower, but now I know that it’s just major dissociation.

2025-11-09 04:04:31 UTC

You’re in his DMs, I’m frightening the townsfolk. We are not the same.

2025-11-06 02:43:18 UTC

Thank you, fedi, for being a place of peace for me 🖤

2025-11-04 19:41:33 UTC

Does honey
Remember
The comb?
Hexagonal and
Golden,
And do your
Atoms remember
The core of
The star that
Made them?
Ask yourself
When next
You burn.
#poetry

2025-11-03 20:48:50 UTC

May our empathy
Never atrophy
In a world
Built on
Apathy.
#poetry

2025-10-29 22:13:59 UTC

You must
Realize:
The light
Belongs to you,
And is not to be
Dimmed by
Those who
Cannot
Perceive
Their own.

Don’t ask a family member to do something you wouldn’t ask a stranger to do. Simple.

2025-10-21 03:32:49 UTC

Boost = forehead kiss, right?

My nervous system watching me fill the coffee pot again

In spite of
The darkness
Inside you,
You burn like
The Sun.
#poetry

People post bluesky links and it renders as the person’s avatar, so it’ll be like “this was bound to happen” and it’s just a closeup of a guy’s face.

2025-09-27 04:06:24 UTC

I am grateful
That I am made
More of stars
Than silence.

You were
Born from
The light of
A thousand
Stars, you
Needn’t fear
The dark.
#poetry

2025-09-21 23:55:17 UTC

May this
Suffering
Become
So much
Kindling
For the
Fire inside
Us all,
That we may
One day
Outshine
The dark.
#poetry

2025-09-07 00:10:30 UTC

You are not
Broken, you
Are a prism,
Every fracture
Refracting
The light.
#poetry

2025-09-05 17:55:04 UTC

Bring me
The open
Casket
Of night,
Let the stars
Burn me
Alive inside
Of it.
#poetry

2025-09-04 02:25:37 UTC

There will come
A night that is
The last night,
And the stars
Will burn brighter
Having forgotten
Your name, and
Remembered
Their own.
#poetry

2025-08-31 02:46:14 UTC

Never forget
The darkness
Inside of you
Is teeming
With stars.

In you that I
Follow back
To find myself.

You’re in his DMs, I’m in the LHC looking for a portal to another universe. We are not the same.

2025-08-22 02:23:48 UTC

You’re in his DMs, I’m in the DSM-5. We are not the same.

2025-08-21 01:21:17 UTC

Dudes that flirt with people with AI profile pictures, are you ok?

2025-08-18 18:06:26 UTC

You’re in his DMs, I’m cutting his brake lines. We are not the same.

I’m too old to chase men. That’s why I have attack dogs.

2025-08-10 05:21:56 UTC

I never felt
So lonely
As when
I learned
Your name
#poetry

2025-08-08 07:47:33 UTC

Put on a trench coat and ask me if I wanna solve some mysteries.

2025-08-08 04:07:27 UTC

“You look happier.”
Thanks, I’ve gone completely insane.

2025-08-07 20:48:06 UTC

We have all
Fallen from the
Same stars
Into each others
Arms, to illuminate
The dark.
#poetry

2025-08-06 01:57:36 UTC

I’ll meet the stars
As lowly dust,
And they will still
Welcome me
Home.
#Poetry

2025-07-27 03:02:08 UTC

You told me
Love would
Never break
My bones
With a sledgehammer
Behind your back.
#poetry

2025-07-17 01:22:36 UTC

I’ve borrowed
This body
From the stars,
From the grave,
A debt that will
One day be
Repaid in
Full.
#poetry

2025-07-10 19:19:57 UTC

Let the stars
Help you to remember
What living makes you
Forget:
You are a mote of dust,
You are the whole sky.
#poetry

2025-07-06 19:39:19 UTC

Perhaps the stars
Are funeral pyres
For all that’s died
In me, what can be
Resurrected in fire
Waiting.

You’re in his DM’s, I’m the void he screams into. We are not the same.

Sometimes
Silence is
The only way
We have left
To scream.

So that the
