About thirty seconds ago, I groaned. Ugh- I don’t know what to write. And then I opened up a blank note, and wrote the first line that came to mind. And then words literally *flooded* onto the page.
It’s crazy how we try and throw up these mental barriers that get in the way of our art. But the moment we create an opportunity for it come through, it shows up.
Crazy.
Anyway, here’s another Taylor swift song, which I have to give a nod to. Have you watched the long pond sessions on Disney Plus? It’s super good. I swear I’m not a swiftie. I mean— who cares. But, I tend to get a tad obsessive with things when they hit right.
Anyway, she breaks down the idea of the mirror ball as being someone who breaks themselves into little shards in order to give everyone else pleasure and enjoyment. And that idea popped in my head while writing and it kept the words coming. So thanks, TS!
I couldn’t be more
honest
with you
if I tried
these broken
pieces of me
lie
in patterns
scattered
but the whole
is there
for you to
find
it’s in these
moments
i don’t mind
if I break a
little more
watch me
shine
a mirrorball
reflects you
and you’re
mine
I trap you
spirit, body, and
mind.
To what favor
do I owe, if
I should be so
kind
to give you
my words
line by line
there’s no
going back
now, I can’t
ask you to be
blind
to the errors
I sow— an
eye for an eye
