i wanted to write you a song
But I forgot how to sing
When I dream of you
All the movements of fresh beats and musical language come alive
Your gorgeous smile is a song
A song that created waves of thunder inside of my soul
The thunder isn’t scary
The thunder feels magnificent
It bursts into springtime
And the fresh light blue sky teases
Me along with your rich brown eyes
A song called three letters
A deep breath that I feel bad to hold in
I can’t let the stars leak out their gold
As they play out a single verse,
Your glow is more luminous than all the other stuff that space is made of
And your song created within all the other wavelengths of deep emotions
Such as I have never heard before
And will never
Forget.

WARNING. I will be tapping into one of your favorite creative tensions: The absurdity of humans worshipping their glowing rectangles as if they were tiny oracles. There’s something deliciously poetic about that contradiction, and it lends itself beautifully to an instructive proviso.

Rachel Reviews: The Spiral Archive by Pieter Hendrik
It's difficult for me to know where to start with a review of this book as it was, for me, an entirely unique experience and one that I'll probably never have again. I don't want that to be interpreted as unenjoyable but it has left me scratching my head a little and ruminating on its content, its themes and its characters.

this is sublime, Melissa! Well done. Just so pretty, your words are.
Until I awaken & forget how to sing, or even the tune, or the words beyond "ILY".
Awww, this was extremely sweet!
This is really beautiful
This is so beautiful it makes me want to fall in love again. 🩷
