resolve


  1. make no hot baths out of misery when you run out of your own.
  2. so don't try to reach for god for other people.
  3. getting what you want is a reaction. 
  4. women women women oh women
  5. let your body lead you into prayer. it knows. it can speak the fluttering, the thin sheet of glass, the immovable wall, the silk dress on the chaise lounge, the stubbled knee, the breath stealing icy wind, the cornflower sigh. you don't have to.
  6. keep your promises, keep clean, keep going.
  7. deep Emma Goldman jewess
  8. it simply has to cost. no way round it.
  9. speak up but not over.
  10. godly and ungodly AT THE SAME TIME.
  11. stop performing when you're fucking. ugh
  12. the dreams fantastical don't make you good.
  13. when a person tells you that you hurt them, you don't get to decide that you didn't.
  14.  hummmmmmm ahhhh mmmmmmm
  15. get towed under by beauty once a day
  16. not so many things quite matter as much as you think
