halloween was alright, i guess. on the bright side, i had the best costume at work.
it's november first - the start of national novel writing month.
let the writer's block begin!
find me on nanowrimo so we can share in each other's literary toil.
username - sluttering.
I.
our kiss is a secret handshake, a password.
we love like spies, like bruised prize fighters,
like children building tree houses.
our love is serious business.
one look from you and my spine reincarnates as a kite string.
when i hesitate to hold your hand,
it is because our touch unlocks secrets
i'm not sure i want to know yet --
because to know is to be responsible for knowing.
II.
there is no clean way to enter
the heavy machinery of the heart.
just jagged cutthroat questions.
just the glitter and blood production.
III.
the truth is this:
my love for you is the only empire
i will ever build.
when it falls,
as all empires do,
my career in empire building will be over.
i will retreat to an island.
i will dabble in the vacation-hut industry.
i will skulk about the private libraries and public parks.
i will fold the clean clothes.
i will wash the dishes.
i will never again dream of having the whole world.

most of you probably won't read this. it's all good.
i don't mean for you to feel pressured into make one of these, or to thank me or anything if you don't want to. that's not what this is for. i want you to use this blog to feel good about yourself. to meet new friends. who knows? maybe this site will be as wonderful for you as it has been for me.
edit: and no, i'm not leaving. just feeling appreciative.
i've been scripting out a new piece in my head all week.
i've got a jist on the characters and the storyline, but much needs to be done.
also, i want to start a book club/book exchange. any takers?
