metamorphosis is always uncomfortable
nervous spiders scaling up the miles of your spine
naked arms mottled with alien light
and boats of your soul unmoored from their lines

your skull a-light with gold & ache
dark moths take flight from your tired hips
damning poetry from his ancient lips
but a young world has her courage

metamorphosis is always uncomfortable
as night settles faint & sweet about your ears
and ocean breath burns on your new skin
bloody champagne names the new years

love, cassie.

1. dear _____

please don't set your turtle free. your turtle will be an eco-terrorist, as he is almost certainly a red-eared slider, and res are invasive species, of dubious legality, and probably meant for soup. and if your turtle is not native to the ecosystem he is released to/if he was captive from birth, he will probably not know how to fend for himself and will additionally wreak some minimal havoc on his new habitat.

sincerely, me.

the ONE and ONLY picture i could find of cassie seifert, who was an anchor on nightly business report in the early 1990s. my mother named me after her. WHY? almost just because. because my grandparents watched the show. because ms. seifert was intelligent. pretty. sophisticated. (the namesake not so much)

my brother played one of my jhs graduation songs and now i'm all sad. again.

love, cassie.

p.s. name stories? your birthname, a nickname, your lj user name.
