love is a loaded gun

My Life had stood - a Loaded Gun -In Corners - till a Day
The Owner passed - identified -
And carried Me away -

And now We roam in Sovereign Woods -

And now We hunt the Doe -

And every time I speak for Him 

-The Mountains straight reply -

And do I smile, such cordial light

Upon the Valley glow -

It is as a Vesuvian face

Had let its pleasure through -

And when at Night - Our good Day done -

I guard My Master's Head -

'Tis better than the Eider-Duck's
Deep Pillow - to have shared -

To foe of His - I'm deadly foe -

None stir the second time -

On whom I lay a Yellow Eye -

Or an emphatic Thumb -

Though I than He - may longer live

He longer must - than I -

For I have but the power to kill,

Without--the power to die--

by chance

 

show yourself to me!

i am ready for your dazzling haze and

i will think not of your inevitable betrayal 

when our alliance is broken by thee.

american dreams

//jordan sullivan's photograpy// is pure, raw americana.

it reminds me of //this video// i made about my roadtrip last summer. 

there's something familiar, yet unsettling about these photos.

like they would hit home, if there was a home to hit.

when you're sixteen

 //franey miller's// photographs capture exactly what it felt like to be sixteen, hopeful and in love.

happy family

honestly, pregnancy has always freaked me out. 

it's the most natural and beautiful process of life, but all i can think about when i encounter a pregnant woman are cravings, back pain, weight gain, and the ever dreadful labor drill. a pregnant woman is like a ticking time bomb, and when time's up her belly will explode into another human. 

BUT

this photo shoot managed to quell my terrible imagery.
