excerpts from notes on my life

  • Planning Ahead

    Fucking Lover’s Rock, Sade. Just when I thought I’d cleared you out of my head. The Universe prevails, looping me back in just as I open myself back up to write. Such a slow track, it fades out, almost taking me out with it, lulling me back into a haze of sleep. The couple sitting Read more

  • Dive Right In
