Mood-board for a Ghost
Think raven feathers
Think picnics
Think partly eaten waffles and dark colored posters and stories about dead English kings
Think the feeling in the pit of your stomach before you go over the peak of a roller coaster
You name it anxiety and keep it in a padded bed and feed it three times a day
Think cutting your hair, dyeing your hair, shaving your hair
Think cycling through hair like water: evaporation, transpiration, condensation, precipitation
You name this cycle queer and and plant it in the yard and the rain waters it and it grows up the walls
Think high places and dramatic lighting and black and white words
On the page and they sound like music
You name it beauty and you feed it hope and sing and maybe it looks like home
