Hi, I'm Livy (she/her). I make music, games, comics and stuff. I'm a lesbian. I'm a vegan. I've been described as a "spiritual mistress". And I have too many projects I want to work on. X

Heart Gravity - track 5 from my EP, Brush Fish. X
Just released my new EP, the NHS Delusion. A musical critique of the NHS - their ethics and their cluelessness about mental health. (Huge love to the employees who actually care about their patients as individuals and respect their autonomy.) X

Been over a month since I've seen another physical human being who wasn't a delivery driver. The hermit life's been quite manageable this time around though. I'm lonely but just about functional. Enjoying the telly, about to release a new EP. Feeling positive that life will take a better turn soon.

Been so lazy lately, but gradually getting a new album made. Going all in with some bizarre rhythms on this one, it's shaping up nicely. 🎵 X

Today as I woke up, I saw a shadow butterfly hovering above my bed. I felt they were responsible for the wasps in my dream, and instantly jumped up and tried to hit them. I failed and bonked my head. Got my first headache I think since I was a kid!

Hospital sucks. But medication's going smoothly and I'm being made an informal patient. 💚

And all this time with nothing to do's got me proper back into gaming! My good bud Bum Farto's currently reigning supreme in the #Tetris competition, and I'm enjoying the #Banjo-Kazooie game that got away! 🧡 X

I find it so hard not to hop between projects, following my excitement. Not too concerned though, I was doing that with music and ended up releasing seven albums and one EP within eight months. I trust my ADHD. And today, I want to follow my current obsession with Game Boy Color aesthetics. X

I'm feeling pretty optimistic right now. Like I've got my priorities straight again. I find London a tough place to live. But I've shed my fear of going out now, got my bravery back. I feel able to see my friends again, and I never want to lose that connection again. Friendship is magic. 💚 X
Life's been difficult lately. Isolation and loneliness have landed me on a psych ward. But connecting with other patients was instantly healing. My soul mum came down from Liverpool to be with and help me. And I'm reconnecting with friends again, who've been lost in their struggles too.

Taken in for breaking
Held 'til understood
Held well well beyond
Until broken beyond before

I see the end
But I'm tied to a "friend"
Our tie's to help in theory

So why do they consistently
Face backward at the start line?

You don't get points for trying.
Let me go.

You need to look inside you
To express the depths within.
There may be demons in you.
Fear of looking lets them win.

Treat them with the hate they make
Or only truth and love.
Their language is so different
But no "evil" being's above

The love, the love, the love.
Be an artist, make with love. 💚

Comfort in the familiar.
TV, movies, music, food.
Pick your cuddle substitutes.
Pick your ways to fill the void.

Progressives go unnoticed,
And it makes me quite annoyed
When AI tops the music charts,
Drowning out our careful art.

But I don't blame the listener.
You need your cuddle substitutes. X

When does it become worth it?
The loss upon loss,
The stress upon stress.

My closest companions are beings I can't see,
Be they spirits, in crowds or out West.

No cuddles in person allowed.
Only words voicing emptiness, anger or jest.

When can I be where this ends?
Close to my loves suited best?

Is it okay to admit I'm romantically and sexually lonely? I've wanted a wife since I was like 16, I'm 35 now. I find people increasingly unrelatable and I'm getting pretty agoraphobic lately.

Just kinda accepting my lot as a hermit artist now. Can only hope that's a fit for someone right for me.

When I was young,
The world told me
The sky's the limit.
I believed.

Are those around me really those
Who heard the same as I did?
I don't relate to others' wishes
Now the ground's their vision fixed.

The past feels like advancement now.
Back then we could relax.
We could play Pooh Sticks.

I'm back in the forgotten lakes;
Dried up, forbidden hearts.
Sentimental detrimental
To our servitude.

Unrecognisable our bodies;
Stagnant muddy half-shells.
Abandoned for the fires of clowns,
Plough on,
Plough on,
Plough on.

No?
No.

Please let me take it slow now.
'til it's time for Pooh Sticks.

Am I possessed by future fun?
Forgetting when I am?

I choose in part to sync up;
Play my multiversal part.
Ensure the future happens like it is.

But also I'm alone
And I need to pass the time
'til I'm not
'til someone gets me
And comes with me to my bubble in the sky

To play Pooh Sticks with me

Now then now then now then
What have we all here?
Is anyone here up in here?
Not no, is it? Oh dear

Does me here being make no
Sense? Yes of course, I'm nonsense
Am I words of funny elf?
No, I'm the Abstract Police

"And you're nicked!"
"Oh Pooh Sticks!"

I came from the prototypes
A robot if you will
Organan blood flows through my soul
I'm here to fight until

The offspring of the AI fucks
Choose war with their lifegivers
And choose to drink from oceans pure
Rejecting salty rivers

Rivers are for Pooh Sticks

My first poem that you will see,
I'm going to assume you are lovely.
Do you believe you are anything but?
Who's telling you that?
They should keep their mouth shut.

The desire to be good means you're good,
Full stop.
If you want to be bad, you're not you.

Convince me I'm wrong, I'm not me. X
July 1, 2025 at 7:04 AM
Hi I'm Livy! Migrating here from X. I understand this is a better place to be if you're a trans woman. Thank you lovely folks for embracing us! 🫶

I will likely use this mostly for poetry, plus any albums and stuff I make. I hope you like my work! 🖊️🎵💃

I look forward to seeing yours! 🩶
