Transfusion
This morning, I found a stack of paper in between two books. Every sheet presents a chart. Neutrophils and white blood cell counts, platelets and red blood counts too. I can read every day's number. Folded together; I found many sheets like this. Ordinarily; days make months. Then; one month. Two months. … Continue reading Transfusion

Bad dream/recap
I got lost for a minute. Maybe two or three. In the sweet feels, the intoxicating lust, in the darkness of your eyes. Or was it poison ivy? You rubbed against me. I participated; it got tricky.

I won't lie to you: I don't lie. I sometimes get gel placed on my nails. I also wear lash extensions. At times, I like to wear fake shiny gold. Ironically, I don’t like “fake”.

Another one.
It went spiraling. I managed to breathe, but I felt like I was missing air. I’m not claustrophobic: yet every single space around me was shrinking in. In short, I witnessed: an episode of acute psychosis. A beloved acquaintance of mine was recently diagnosed. After she told me about it: I researched the term … Continue reading Another one.
White or Gold. Fabrication.
I followed my usual workout routine last week. Motivated or not/discipline is the key. If you want results; you got to put in the work. I mean; I choose to. I later also visited my jeweler. Sounds like I consult lavish professionals; it's not quite like that. Let me explain. A few years back, a … Continue reading White or Gold. Fabrication.
