A man asked me what I was drinking to order a refill in hopes of sex and talked about the faliures of our president as if it would attract me, it didn’t.
The same night I prayed the hail mary in the same bed we used to make love in, held the rosary in my palms naked in candle light alone
After kissing saints the same way I’ve kissed strange men in your absence - and after fucking, which has become the only thing - easier done than said.
i see gaseous dust, maybe a solar powered respirator…. images based on things that amaze me. Scientific advancement - technology and humanity; creation and invention; medical science and the depths of outer-space. our relationship with the each. in case you don’t know - NASA has a tumblr and posts images caught by the largest telescopes ever built (the ones from the Hubble are particularly humbling…) its one of the few blogs i follow and it never ceases to - dare i say - blow my mind. sometimes i feel a bit guilty about it, peeking helplessly with whole sockets exposed and mouth hung open - as though my eyes are on something i was never meant to see… the forbidden: religion. (or as close to religion we can comprehend in a physical and multi-dimentional way.) if you care at all i recommend you take a look yourself - it will leave you rewarded.
