- poison someone or something; influence in a way that makes someone lose control

Just because you can't see the hurt in someone's eyes, or the millisecond someone's smile falters, or even the tear stains that cover their face, doesn't mean it isn't there. Your obliviousness doesn't change the way things are.

People thought the Earth was flat, that doesn't mean it was.

Blood Orange Periphery

44 parts Ongoing

My suicide had been two years in the making when I decided not to follow through at the last minute. Over the past decade, I've written poems, books, short stories, fanfiction and hundreds of thousands of words, but nothing felt complete. This collection of selected works was meant to be my final offering- the only thing ready for posthumous publication. Blood Orange Periphery includes poems written in the months preceding the end-that-didn't-happen, some of my best teenage scribbles, and journal entries that chronicle the transition from death-planning, to recalibrating life.
