I Am a Radical Feminist

Or so I’ve been told by a guy I didn’t sleep with — There are a few places that are bound to absorb the odor of rotten utterances. Twitter. The comments section of pretty much any public figure or newspaper. And Instagram DMs. For the most part, I have given the first two a rest. I’m not a massive ‘grammer, either. But I…

On rare occasions, she smiles at the camera, but the smile is cautious…

I Am Dying and I Have a Greater Appreciation for Life

Love fully and put the past behind. — If you’ve arrived here expecting a dying woman’s wise take on life, I’m not going to lead you on any further. I neither purport to be wise nor am I imminently dying. But if you’d like to partake in a thought experiment, indulge my dramatic opening a while longer. “We…

A Cancelled Lockdown Date Taught Me to Revalue My Time

Life’s too short to flirt with people who don’t “get it.” — “I’m not really feeling the vibe. Maybe we should get to know each other a bit more before meeting up.” My first thought: “Oh my goodness I’m going to die alone I am unlikeable everyone hates me and my landlady won’t even let me have a cat.” My second thought: …

30

A coming-of-age poem — 30 is the lessons i’ve learned, the mistakes i’ve un-done, the clarity with which i see my life, it is the health i’ve lost and regained, the grieving for a self departed, it is knowing how to lose. 30 is day by day, it is gradual progress, non-linearity, the patience to let things come to…
