I've reduced a lot of the stress in my life. I've gotten rid of a lot of things. The light was turned on and a lot of the cockroaches started spinning. I swept them out the door. And sometimes you just have to throw things out because they carry a certain energy. ↗

Talking, talking. Spinning a web of words, pale walls of dreams, between myself and all I see. ↗
