RECLUSE part II

after a week straight of bloody fingertips, leather cutting and cold coffee, a collection has been created.
night through night, minions worked, threading and knotting. one dress, one skirt, one short
black throughout, with gold and green disguised underneath
E train to B train. A suitcase full of clothes bounced with two young aspirers dragging it along.
Behind bars and down small hallways, goddesses were created. Tall and thin; hair poised; makeup brushed to perfection.
Hundreds flocked to gaze at the beauty housed within the small white room
Flashes of light, chattering about, everyone seemed to agree.
The lights went down and then the pedestals were empty, a celebration was about to begin.
Drinks on the house, so naturally I couldn't refuse.
Rose petals, ginger-whiskys and 7 empty glasses later, the night was mine. I couldn't have been happier.
RO was beautiful.
LO was handsome.
Only good things were said.
And now, a bit tipsy. Happy and sad. I love the family we've created.
Goodnight for tonight.
Goodbye for a while.
I'm only just across the water.

the rain in new york sucks
being from seattle, i would think rain would be easy to endure
when i stepped out onto the street this morning, i was instantly drenched from head to foot
the dirty, aggressive drops invaded my clothes, making the hair on my neck stand tall as the rude water startled me

seattle rain is soft and kind,
it dances from the sky, flying down to greet passing people
sometimes it makes your clothes damp, but its okay because of the reviving quality it has
i invite the rain to cover me, i want to be drenched in the pacific northwest
if only all rain could be from seattle,
the world would definitely be a better place

NEW YORK NEW YORK

sometimes i just go,
i never think of where im going to sleep, where im going to eat, or how im going to get from one place to the next,
i just go,
never having a plan makes surprises arise more often and in a different form
they come from the hundreds of feathers you find, littering the streets
from the unique beauty of a new york skyline shadowed by night
perhaps a cute boy takes interest in your shoes, telling you he has the same pair
i never want my days to have a timeline, living appointment to appointment
pairs was thought of on tuesday and made a reality by sunday
i rely on my ability to improve life, a skill i have practiced and continue to perfect each minute of everyday
some say free spirit, i say a really good bullshitter
you can't tie me down because ive  already gone before you get the chance
love life as it comes, because its probably the best life you'll ever live
and now, its time for me to go
