///ENLIGHTEN///

to free oneself..

be poetry..

in dark, in light, in.. (the universe)

enlighten your other sphere

a southern sphere

with western fears

the east eats peace

while we eat peas with a carrot sun

the lunar son is jesus by day

& everybeing by night

we are the sky

enveloping the entireverse

galaxies upon galaxies

a mouthful

in a full belly moon

cry to your daughters

they feel how we all feel

they've seven senses

eleven eyes

their silent sighs speak moving volumes

books on books on books

opening ajnas

of lettered best friends

worded mothers

& worldly brothers

missed

though everything is here

here & now

to free oneself..

be poetry..

in dark, in light, in.. (the universe)

///CALIFORNICATION///

We commenced our Cali trip with a predictable but nonetheless appropriate album.

How Strong were we that we broke Easily as Porcelain. I put on This Velvet Glove and fixed a suture across  our Scar Tissue. Together we invoked a Savior from the Otherside who came Right On Time bearing an invitation to a Parallel Universe. With a Purple Stain on each of our brains, the light motioned for us to Get On Top of a floating merkaba. We went Road Trippin': physically up and down California, spiritually Around The World and beyond. Emit Remmus said farewell as the seasons officially fell; desert stills turned to northern winds which morphed into rare southern rains, and this

was Californication.

The following are digital recollections of recent roadtrips with my love rhxanders and my dearest father
through Joshua Tree, San Francisco, Oakland, and Coalinga.

///EARTHVISIT///

EARTH VISITATION LOOKBOOK

This is a makeshift lookbook to preface the proper one yet to come. It was expertly composed with my super mindblowing Microsoft Paint skills because I'm like, what is a photo shop? The original film photographs were shot in innerspace (sometimes manifested physically as a desert called Joshua Tree) by my sisterloves Ixchel Lara and Huni Sofia. This was my first earth visitation and I must say it was magnificent - rainbow showers, onomatopoeic supermoons, kaleidoscopic scenery, cacti warriors, sandstorm dreams across a vast nothingness, and the occasional barefoot skateboard journey beneath a 105 degree sun.
