AI generated image of a younger version of me looking at the stars and cosmos from the mountains.
Years ago, I stood on Arthur’s Seat—the ancient volcanic summit overlooking Edinburgh—with the wind rushing past and the entire city spread below me.
From that height, the world just felt immeasurable.

AI Silhouette of a man with a pony tail (me when I was younger) looking out on a mountain side into the stars across the universe.
I didn’t yet know about the house fire—the rewriting. The weight life would carry.
But I was small inside something vast—and I was still here.
This month, I share Spoonful of Gravity.

🌌 Another year under the same universe. 🌌
Years ago I climbed Arthur’s Seat above Edinburgh. From that summit, the world felt ancient and immense. That moment became my poem “Universe.”

I didn’t dance. I watched from the edge.
I left. I came back.
I wrote this instead.
And yeah—
I chose the May Flowers.

Visuals of posters for "The Vagina Monologues," and "Home of the Moan," and a note from Eve Ensler, that reads, "I cannot tell you what it meant to have you support me."

I remember times of sitting on my grandmother's screened in porch, listening to the rustle of leaves in the oak tree nearby. It's branches provided a cool spot to rest during the heat of the day.
