PRISMATIC BREACH
— on being #shattered

Not all heartbreaks arrive in flames.
Some are immaculately engineered—
precise, elegant and quietly devastating.
This is not decorous grief.
This is refusal.

AFTER THE NEEDLE STALLS
— everlong, attempted

We called it Everlong.
Time disagreed.
What survived was echo.

STILLPOINT INVENTORY
— the pause, re-examined

A moment held open.
A self quietly reconfigured.
Nothing resolves.

DISPERSAL
— into dust, ethically

Fading is not disappearance but refinement.
A learning of weight, of humility, of presence without insistence.

INERTIA
— exegesis from a score that forbids silence

Some movements persist without consent.
Inside #unavoidable motion, systems keep time, roles outrun breath and persistence is mistaken for agreement.

DIALOGUE WITH THE SHADOW
—learning the grammar of fear

Conversations with fear don’t start with bravery.
They start with staying.

I spoke anyway.
Fear listened.
Then it lowered its voice.

MESSY — where pixels learn to blush

Even algorithms ache for tenderness.
#Messy isn’t failure—just proof we tried to feel something real in the static.

IGNITION MEMORY —where awe first learned my name

Some memories don’t fade —
they idle quietly under the ribs,
waiting to be started again.

PALINODE —an old song, rewritten by silence

Once, music was escape. Now, it is evidence. The songs didn’t change. I did.

RED’S LANTERN — not all wolves are villains

Not every cloak means innocence,
not every wolf is the villain.
Sometimes the girl is the flame
that rewrites the forest.

THE RIVER’S UNFINISHED SONG —beneath silver springs, beside sad things

Some rivers don’t forget—
they sing what we could not.

THE UNDECLARED
—a silence rehearsed in code

I speak in clearance codes,
not confessions.
Where others store memory,
I draft decoys
in plain text.

THE ONSET OF A DIFFERENT SEASON
—where longing ends and liberty learns to stretch

They asked why I never married—
as if absence were a deficiency ...
