Here’s what our parents never taught us:
You will stay up on your rooftop until sunlight peels away the husk of the moon,
chainsmoking cigarettes and reading Baudelaire, and
you will learn that you only ever want to fall in love with someone
who will stay up to watch the sun rise with you.You will fall in love with train rides, and sooner or later you will
realize that nowhere seems like home anymore.A woman will kiss you and you’ll think her lips are two petals
rubbing against your mouth.You will not tell anyone that you liked it.
It’s okay.
It is beautiful to love humans in a world where love is a metaphor for lust.You can leave if you want, with only your skin as a carry-on.
All you need is a twenty in your pocket and a bus ticket.
All you need is someone on the other end of the map, thinking about the supple
curves of your body, to guide you to a home that stretches out for miles
and miles on end.You will lie to everyone you love.
They will love you anyways.One day you’ll wake up and realize that you are too big for your own skin.
Molt.
Don’t be afraid.Your body is a house where the shutters blow in and out
against the windowpane.You are a hurricane-prone area.
The glass will break through often.But it’s okay. I promise.
Remember,
a stranger once told you that the breeze

MARS
I was invited to assist in the creation of the visual elements for the play: Mars: (a play about mining). The play was beautifully art directed by Kristy Caldwell, who in collaboration with Clay Rodery and myself created the look of the characters and world, the actors, dancers and musicians skillfully portrayed.
Clay and Kristy make great work you should check out their respective feeds:

A psychologist walked around a room while teaching stress management to an audience. As she raised a glass of water, everyone expected they’d be asked the “half empty or half full” question. Instead, with a smile on her face, she inquired: “How heavy is this glass of water?”
Answers called out ranged from 8 oz. to 20 oz.
She replied, “The absolute weight doesn’t matter. It depends on how long I hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it’s not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I’ll have an ache in my arm. If I hold it for a day, my arm will feel numb and paralyzed. In each case, the weight of the glass doesn’t change, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes.” She continued, “The stresses and worries in life are like that glass of water. Think about them for a while and nothing happens. Think about them a bit longer and they begin to hurt. And if you think about them all day long, you will feel paralyzed – incapable of doing anything.”
It’s important to remember to let go of your stresses. As early in the evening as you can, put all your burdens down. Don’t carry them through the evening and into the night. Remember to put the glass down!I think this just changed my life.
And with this, I would like to add my new definition of an anxiety disorder: When you can’t put the glass down, no matter how much you want to.
