I'm an actor, of course I play different roles with different faces. But just
as one faces behind two mask, so too does my voice come from the same mouth.
well, that's not true, I speak in many different places. different sets, same
actor, perhaps character.

I don't know if that's true, and frankly I don't know if anyone says that.

yeah, and you could learn a thing or two from this guy here. see, he fell for

sure would be a shame if they came back for revenge.
I don't know what they expected, honestly, collecting so many souls in one

Your body is a river, from your mouth to your exits
Throughout there are many pathways and shores
As the tide goes up, the color of concentration goes up
And all four of you are made clear
Each act of consumption
is a ride down the river,
though broken into slivers,
and changed beyond recognition
The color is what defines the third eye
and beauty is beheld, what joys to be felt
While secrecy is bold, it's often held
So worry less and just go with the fold

low-drama... or normal drama? people who are prone to histrionics can be
exhausting, and it's often exhausting for them as well. Drama and excitement
is what gets them through the day, while most people are driven by something
more inertial or instinctual or goal-focused.
you don't have to be on all the time. if you're tired, then rest! if you're
hungry, then eat! if you're thirsty, then drink! if you're lonely, then speak,
if you're sad, then cry, if you see some friends at a party, then dance like
tomorrow you might die. That's how I like to be, and I think it's a decent way
to be.
it can be prone to dramatics though... YMMV

(not really I'm just a person with no magical powers whatsoever, no siree

people only have the context of their lives, as any historical precedent that
once was passed forth to the present by their ancestors and mentors is now
sharing space with the endless deluge of information from a small glass,
plastic, and metal box that saps both their attention and the magnitude of
anything they learn.
"so what if the planets on fire? somehow this actor who had an affair with
this other actor feels just as important. so what if there's fascism? I just
heard that whales can't swim in the ocean. oh, the city's burning? that's not
my burden, and plus it's just as important as these memes which don't make me
want to scream."
in the same way that some forest fae might have security through obscurity,
they wield information density against us as a weapon to hide their sins of
morality.

I added a line to my .bashrc that cats out a random one of my notes every time
I open a terminal.
I keep reading things that I swear I didn't write, but feel right and true to
me in a way that could only imply that they came fully formed into my eyes
through the lines on my screen, cast upon the mirror panes of my hard disk
drive by the pounding of my keyboard as I once upon a time did cast a spell
upon my future.
It's pretty neat, but it speaks to a shadowed perspective that perhaps is
neither within nor without.
Side note, I think I've been possessed by a witch. But like... in a consensual

But hey! There's always time to practice, each moment you can think "what kind

Like a crazy person following the will of god, or a nature witch listening to

What they often get wrong, and what they could be better at hearing, is that
signals are not signs unless they're out of the ordinary.

A plant with no leaves, just hair.
Time is different to a plant such as me,
We hardly wake up, we're just happy to be
But life has no less purpose, it's no less grand
To those who would feed on me, in one single band
Stalling and talking and as we're falling down,
you have the power to not swallow our abounds.
Gnashing and gnawing on hand and on foot,
It hurts no less than eternal binding.
But what is time to one so little as you?
Your breaths are so short, your timings subdued.
Keep falling and shouting, and calling my name,
and I'll come a running just to swallow your shame.
Keep fear on a leash, most tidy and well kept,
That none may abhor you and you're soon to be
A leader a prophet a warrior most fair,
One to be aspired to and viewed with care.
Young you may be, and youth you may cherish,
but don't run away, stand as a parish.
A villain to be, a curse is most foul
For sirens to me, a terrible howl
Keep not naught afraid,

there is a time for solutions, and a time for just getting people on your side.
there is a time for building passions, and a time for letting things slide.
when you think and act cooperatively, by assigning yourself to a comrade
cohort,
you can work as a team might, except where everyone wants to do work.
I love what I read here. I think you're all so neat. I love when you talk
about things, it feels like we're finally finding our feet.
Did any witches out there notice a phase change recently? It's funny when that
happens, but I think things are going to get better. The more that we share,
the more we can build!

the sun goes silent for a year, to protest the earth's dying moments
one day in march, the light of our life disappears. we know not of why it has \
departed, except that whatever it was happened eight minutes ago.
we cowered in fear as one day it refused to rise
as our antipode saw it vanish
with naught but our ears
we saw stars never imagined
with the light of our life suddenly vanished
our true plight came naturally as our fear
but tomorrow it'll re-imagine,
as it's been almost exactly one year
one full rotation,
to get the message across,
then with man as our [signal, \
message, \
conveyor, \
performer, \
expression, \
by-product communication,]
what's our earth is our star
trust-me

if you don't want to be hunted, then give "evil" it's own queer culture
what's that? they don't like what you offered? they want it to be *their* kind
of "evil"?
fine, do it themselves and then leave us alone, jeez -.-

You care too much about what other people think of you. Remember the dream,
remember the horseflesh, the miles of trash, the doctors probing cheeks, the
game of thrown baseballs and sad muppets in popcorn, remember the spirit
guide, remember how you we're distracted by human. Be not afraid, follow.
