My biggest mistake was being so scared
of being absorbed in your personality,
that I never even took a chance
to remember it.
I still don't know what your favorite book is.
-
-
Flies and birds and mushroom pigs
run on the rails and jump of the trails.
I’m your king
young and pale.
Worship my teeth.
Hail!
-
Last night I dreamt of you.
My heart beats to shutter
when my eyes are shut
and my palms seek your thighs
under empty sheets
hopelessly and endlessly.
-
That fucking love
And that fucked up break-up
Was kick in the gut
But I’ve learned to be smart
And landed on my paws.
-
He said he simply did not love me anymore.
And it turned my heart black.
But turned out heart was only bruised.
And with time it healed.
And with space it forgave.
-
Fuck your stories
Fuck your men
Fuck your habits
and peculiarities.
Fuck your excuses
Fuck explanations
Fuck your hopes
And FUCK your dreams.
Simple life of second best.
I loved silver more than gold.
Dark has shown me more than light.
When I was young, I envied old.
I turned left when you turned right.
Always quiet.
Always guest.

I went to see a room this afternoon and a miniature King Charles spaniel ran up to me right as I entered.
I obviously couldn’t help myself and probably spent good 10 minutes neglecting the other tenants.
Once I realized my excitement had taken a better of me, I looked up at the guys and said: “sorry, dogs get preferential treatment, even if it’s human hands where my fate lies”.
They laughed, taking sarcasm for charm.
No human’s worth the aggravation. That's ancient history. been there, done that.
And here’s a lesson to you, kids. You’ll never go wrong flattering a proud parent’s ego.
I got the room.
-
you come home, open the door,
leave your boots right on the floor,
don't smile or nod or kiss my neck
and then you take a cigarette
and smoke till midnight. Hell!
Fuck that!
I'm playing St Paul, fix ash with gin,
take my shirt off like I'm a whore
but you're high on ketamine.
I bleed the letters from my nose,
the droplets smudge on nipple rings,
I am close, so fucking close,
but I need another drink.
4, passed out in salty bath,
where my wounds soak up the foam,
you put rubies in my meth,
I'm alone when you are home.
And it's tragic, but it's fine,
cause blue horns grow off my spine
and my hips, the veiny snakes,
will ache and melt and age and flake.
don't fuck with me, or fuck and go.
-
Tonight I smell of pink salt
and black orchids.
And my earlobes taste of wet metal.
My eyelids wait for your lips.
And the vein on my neck
trembles at the lick of your “goodnight”.
You’re probably still there,
Paris.
Taking too much room in your white bed.
Not knowing that you smell of sunshine
and green apples.
I have married your memories
but divorced your life.
-
you left and took your smell away
from my morning bed last year.
and now I fuck and talk and play
with the voice no one can hear.

-
patience, my darling, killed a cow.
now, as much as I appreciate being milked, I do not identify as one.
-
I've always loved your parties -
playing Liszt and David Bowie;
drinking sarcasm and mannered smile;
smoking style and impertinence;
dressing up in flirt and whiskey;
-
remember that one time you asked me to learn how to draw
so I could draw you.
foolishness, paired with promiscuity turned me on.
-
witches gathered by my bed
and scratched their names on my ribs.
I could feel the vibration, of their fingers in my spine.
-
Take me back to that small town
somewhere in New England,
where old Americans drink brown beer
and lick their lips
thinking about my toes and ankles.
-
misplaced and anxiously looked for -
the way I feel.
-
sexualizing trauma,
because I'm a fucking millennial.
-
You poured blue wine on my shoulders.
It serpented down the canyon of my backbone; and kissed me lilac one vertebra at a time; and crawled around the dimples of my lower back,
sleeping and slipping through my thighs You were Adonis. I am Dionysus.

and pick strawberries.
we'll sit by the forest.
talk about ancient gods
and myths and poems
that don't seem too far anymore.
frogs will come out
and stick their little paws
on your knees and listen.
stories will pour
as river flaws away.
birds will quiet.
snakes will round.
life slows down
as will the breath.
and trees that seemed silent before
will be loud with approval.
we'll have all the time in the world.
your hold will be strong and forceful.
my neck will stretch and wrinkle.
and the tower
that we passed,
built to honor
goddess of fauns,
shall stare at our direction,
with chambers full of
wet, dark creatures,
and doors,
soaked in moss and saliva.
you've been my reward.
I'll be your sacrifice.

and took them to the dumpster.
light was small and nose was sharp.
air was yellow and city slept on.
and as the bags hit the metal floor,
I thought of your body hitting pavement
that day, in rain and cold.
I let go almost as well as you did.
-
All this time I was sending my thoughts, soul and energy to where my heart is.
Today I start my advanced yoga teacher training and I want to consciously dedicate it to Tbilisi, my hometown.

he told me stories of the sea,
“green as green milk,
blue as laundry water,
wine dark”,
and of the sun and roads.
I wished I hadn’t imprinted myself so much onto NewYork.
I wish I was free,
of decisions, and doubts and people.
he told me about Marseilles,
his nights and his days,
about the sun and absence of clouds.
I remembered all my secret journeys,
never told,
always hidden,
nestled in my hips and thighs.
And just like that,
I wasn’t in my bedroom anymore.
I was with friends, by the sea,
“green as green milk,
blue as laundry water,
wine dark”.

You know what’s almost as rocky as 2020? This glass of gin I’m holding like a boujee dandy that I am. I’ve got only one little gulp and 20 more minutes left in the bath.
Clearly, I do love living on the edge.
Me (born on 8/6): dhanyavaad.
My boy
always standing at the balcony
of the house that I left
My boy
on Sundays wears the blue shirt
I gave him on his birthday once
My boy
tries to move on,
tries to date other dancers
My boy
keeps the ticket from the movie
we first saw together
My boy
lives in Marseille
but dreams of coming to New York
My boy
saves all his money
to buy the painting that I liked
My boy
listens to recordings
of my poems about him
My boy
smokes and drinks Tanqueray
because I smoke when I drink gin
My boy
reads Bulgakov at night
because I called him once "blue Woland"
And all this might be just fiction
but perhaps it's not a lie.

and embodied flavor of exotic Africa
writes out through me.
mind escapes to the widest fields of dotted green.
leaves of shortling coffee trees
sound too much like New York keyboards.
So with a flick of my left thumb
I order them to tune their spirit,
soak into Liszt, or Brahms at least.
I see fields of golden desert,
richness of the light and blue,
burning skin on trembling fingers
drowning into the depth of the river Fast.
It is me who escapes
off this room from Queens and mice.
and I do so only laughing,
only trusting bottled mind.
I should have taken pills this morning.
instead I'm traveling to the South.
And then dance comes,
claims my body
and my chest shoots up the Sun
arms fly forward
arms fly skywide
head turns black
and feet press loud,
and the thighs that promised strength
have melted up the hips and stomach,
corseted the muscles tight
lengthened ribs and knees in purple.
I am all and all in mine.
played my body like a drummer
little boy who was a girl
who has waited for the summer -
desert turned to caramel.
should have taken pills this morning
and washed them down with powdered Liszt.
should have, makes me sound so boring.

neighbor's backyard,
crosslegged,
almost 9 am.
And while the coffee,
I made earlier,
surrenders its acquired warmth
to the spring morning,
I watch birds and flowers grow
and liquids rise and fall in trees.
The phone.. I heard it and remembered
every time it brought me you.
the letters, lives and german gardens,
busses, buzzing with student chatter,
river, too small to have drowned me,
parents, left at home alone,
ice-cream cones and blueberry waffles,
cold milk, hidden in the fridge,
pastries and small creamy tartlets,
franzbrötchen and my pens and papers,
picnics, when I lay all quiet,
staring at the sky and friends,
with my thoughts, all scattered nowhere,
trying to know what you had done.
all my flowers, white and peaceful,
all my future, still unclear,
all of Paris, Rodin, Degas,
all the streets I had been lost in.
This is morning, in New York,
while my head is heavy, clouded,
and Brahms sounds like Rachmaninoff.

grammar and gin
I'd gin your brains out.
But you've made it an adverb.
And ginly bit me.

A letter (2)
Dear M,
Today is June 23rd, almost mid day. It was raining all morning. Tables are probably wet. So are the chairs. Everything carries this odd smell of white marble, eve though everything is made of steel. I am wearing the same white shirt I wore in bed, hoping it will carry the warmth of my nightly body, quiet warmth, effortless and naive, unlike ever so anxious mind. Hoping it will carry the dreams into my real life.
I miss myself the most. Not the person I was. No. But the feelings that comprised that person, the perspectives and perceptions and accents on the objects that my eyes lingered on.
#epsomsaltbathdiaries (Part 2)
While I “float” in this epsom salt, practically boiling alive and afraid to move a muscle cause the waters is HOT HOT HOT (damn you, Sydney), I couldn’t help but wonder: will I grow hair on my back or am I safe?
.
A curious thing about this “situation” is how many people (who should have been busy having sex and working and husstlin around) have started developing dangerous thoughts. Let me break this down for ya, Scotty: you ain’t gonna be a writer, you ain’t Oscar Wilde. Stick to what you know: sex and investment banking.
.
I am in fact bathing in the milk of a virgin (or several hundreds of them). But still thinking about the cockdestroyers. Both doing god's work.
.
And now I can’t get the image of Peppa Pig out of my head. What is wrong with me!
.
The best sensation in life is rubbing your boiling hot body against stone cold bath tiles, grasping for breath and wondering if your kidneys have failed yet. It’s freshmen year of college all over again.
.
Today a friend asked if I have ever been taken advantage of because of my money.
Um..
what’s “mani”?
.
I wanna date someone who’s so loose that bath basically turns into an enema sesh the moment they soak into a tub.
And by loose I don’t mean morals.
Is that too much to ASSK?!
.
My shower head started shooting dirty looks at me. It shook its head and mumbled: “6 inches
.. right!”
I feel violated.
Also, hoping love IS blind.
::starts converting cms into inches::
.
I honestly think that the only reason why I don’t drown in a tub is that I’m too bloated.
"Goya beans, saving lives one fart at a time!"
.
I wonder what’s it like to be devastatingly perfect like Achilles but mortally afraid of pedis.
.
If I had a turtle I would bathe with him all the time. To all the turtle owners out there: LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE! IT AIN'T LONG!
I think I’m lonely and quite bitter about it.
Don’t ask
.
I watched Too Hot to Handle and now I feel fat and smart.
But all I REALLY want is to go back to normal.
.
As I laid there, in an empty tub, tweeting to an undeserving space, I couldn’t help but wonder: did my guardian angel avert his eyes while I legit went into a downward dog up against the faucet or did it get into a bird of paradise himself?
Lighthouse peeps will understand.
#epsomsaltbathdiaries
influenced by a younger generation I am taking an epsom bath, for the second time in my LIFE!
Being a Leo through and through, I have a very cat-like attitude towards water.
I believe stewing in any kind of salt is better left to pisces...
But all the yoga kids are doing it, so...
.
Don’t shave the shaveable areas before taking the bath.
Also, turns out the fluffy rug by the tub should NOT be used as a headrest..
It is unfortunately damp.
.
I am no longer terrified by my own bellybutton. However, the nature of it is still mysterious to me.
Is it a hole? Why doesn’t it go anywhere? it certainly is not a button.
If it is a button (which it isn’t), should I try pushing it?.
.
I pushed it.
Something pushed back.
#AmericanHorrorStory Pregnancy Edition.
.
I want to see billy eichner hunt the streets of New York, Corona Edition.
But leave Elena alone. She ain’t exactly what you’d call “young”..
.
Shower head staring and drooling down at me is a little intimidating.
Also, I don’t know what it means but I hear Jared deep conditions his hair while taking a bath and I’m only hoping it’s not the sort of "conditioning" Rebeca has tricked us into on more than one occasion.
.
Massive “Dreamers” flashbacks. Am I Theo, Matthew or Isabelle?
.
To my dear “drain stopper”: you had ONE JOB!!!
Do it! Live up to my EXPECTATIONS!!!
.
Overall impression:
I still prefer bathing in the blood of Bambi’s mother.
.
Afterbath:
I really do have a figure of Venus de Milo. (not exactly an ideal look for 29 year old guy)
And I’ve found a new mole on my groin. It shall remain undiscovered by humans till the end of times!
Also, where the FUCK is Euripides when I need him to immortalize my perishable beauty and desperation!
.
Epilogue:
I haven’t been so beautifully moisturized in my LIFE!
There is cream in the places you wouldn’t expect it to be!
You could say I’m moist like a 13 year old at harry styles concern.
.
It might be Tanqueray talking but if my dick could talk it would recite sonnet xviii rn.

from quarantine.
I am ill.
I've caught fever.
and cough.
and my body hurts,
as though it's trying to break free
from my magic.
I am holding it all together
by the skin of my teeth.
And this might be the last letter I write.
I always wanted you
to be my last addressee.
I have lived off the sadness
and your pretend love
for years.
I have grown quiet and dreamier.
Once you left the present
Past became the only place I wanted to inhibit.
And I moved.
And moved again.
They talked to me.
And they paid attention.
But all of them sensed,
That I had a secret.
And they never managed to get close.
how can your existence be my secret,
when you've has created the world.
Why didn't I remain
alive.
Take your time
I' here.
I am waiting for the love of you.
There is nothing I would do
if you were waiting for me.
But these days you've gone.
I've stayed.
And for the first time in my life
I've become your servant
your maid.
Take your time.
I'm here.
I'm standing.
You told me once you did not need me.
But I knew otherwise.
I thought you were lonely.
I like lonely people.
Acknowledgment of similar souls.
And I've always had this unfortunate need
to find likeness in others.
human?
Take your time.
I'm here.
