the stars are high

on meteors and dying comets,

and so

they glitter.

.

the sky is terrified

of their corner of the universe,

but is it even a sky

if it’s not blue and bright?

the soundless nothing conspires with my earth-trodden soul,

“they took it away.”

.

they took it all away.

and set it on fire,

like folksy witches on brooms which soar

to be beautiful.

oh, so beautiful.

(but when a child points at the sky and sings a rhyme of twinkling evil, i remember the words.

i know what they’ve done.)

.

the stars we

touched with mortality too soon,

rage in glory and gore,

in a fight to be free.

they shine the warmest too,

but be not taken,

oh, be not fooled.

for they’ve an edge too much of mankind

to live forever.

.

so with a sigh,

when these terrible things fall,

like an angel cursed to perdition.

hear, hear,

let’s close our eyes,

and wish upon it’s damnation

a wish for our own.

.

when stars hurt, they shine silver.

when they die, they sparkle grey.

and when they come back to us,

to live again?

they sob.

.

the stars are high

on greed, and vanity, and sin.

and yet

they glitter.

This is actually beautiful ❤️

thank you so much. That means a lot.

i’m quite intrigued with this, shey. it’s written beautifully, but i can’t help but think that these stars are just… the dick angels that once were arrogant pricks in heaven before they fell, lol. which is what makes these stars so ‘evil’. things to ponder about…

ahh, thank you so much, peanut!! that’s a little bit of what i thought as well ~ but it also includes them being corrupt in humanistic ways? greedy and vain sinners, high on drugs, evil things like those - but for they’re so high up in the sky, all we see is them glitter and shine!!

Okay this is really amazing I like it a LOT

How the fuck does this only have 63 notes?

It shatters my heart that gay people centuries ago lived and died thinking the life they wanted was nothing but an impossible dream, and I’m perpetually heartbroken that very little record of them exists. And while I think about this A LOT, I never really knew how to express it until I stumbled upon that Sappho quote:

“Someone will remember us, I say, even in another time.”

My man Jesus

What story is that?

Matthew 18:9

“And if your eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away.”

“Jesus, how can I avoid sin when all these hussies keep revealing the fact that they have bodies?!”

“Hmmm, tough call bro. Have you tried gouging out your eyes so you don’t have to see all those bodies anymore?”

“wut”

“What?”

“Shouldn’t you tell them to… stop dressing like that or something?”

“Don’t see why. It’s not their fault that the fact that they have bodies makes you a fucking sinful horndog. Gotta fix that problem yourself, buddy. Go on, blind yourself.”

“Uh….”

“Or learn to keep it in your g’damn pants no matter what they’re wearing.”

He goes on for like several examples too.

“How can I avoid like, an accidental slip of the hand when…they’re dressin like that?”

“Cut it off.”

“wut”

“Cut it off. Your hand. If it’s a problem, stop having a hand.”

“wut”

“What”

“Did I fucking stutter?”

writing advice: never italicize words to show emphasis! if you’re writing well then the reader will know and you don’t need them!

me: oh really??? listen up, pal, you can just try an pull italics from my cold, dead fingers

I feel this on a spiritual level.

bringing back this great example.

I can and will italicize the fuck out of my writing, thank you very much.

you can pry italics out of my cold dead hands

“don’t like don’t read” is meant for things like, “if you don’t like coffee shops, don’t read this coffee shop AU,” not, “i can be as racist as i want and you have to deal with it because i used a disclaimer.”

………..!!!!
