Directness is such a turn-on. Lay it on me, babe. I can take it. All of it.

it is easy to forget to appreciate the ephemeral gifts of a strong, healthy body, a duty-free morning, a young green month anointed with the fragrance of jasmine and other icons of spring, a three-quarter moon that keeps on filling, pinned between two bodies so bright they must be planets ✧

I think often of Audre Lorde's essay Uses of the Erotic where she distinguishes between the erotic and the pornographic, writing that "pornography is a direct denial of the power of the erotic, for it represents the suppression of true feeling. pornography emphasizes sensation without feeling" ✧

James Baldwin wrote "perhaps home is not a place but simply an irrevocable condition" and this never feels truer than upon returning to my current home in California after spending a big pocket of time "back home" on the East Coast

in a 1975 interview with Maya Angelou, James Baldwin said "all I know about human life is if I love you, I love you. and if I love you and I duck it, I die." this goes for not only who you love, but what you love, because who and what you love is what you are ✦
