Sweet Return (Thoracic+)
I had really big plans to get out to a special remote pocket of northern Arizona this week. The plan was all buttoned up. All I need is someone with 4WD to get through like a 30 minutes stretch of road at the very end. Middle of nowhere like the closest gas station is 3 hours away.
It’s just an amazingly special place I haven’t been able to get my body over to yet. I’ve been trying for two years…. It hasn’t happened because i guess it wasn’t meant to happen yet but this fin...

If I can at least get up and at ‘em enough to post some of my expressions on patreon then I’ll feel like I’m getting It Done and doing The Thing. So you’re all lucky in that you’ll be the first ones to see me upon my exodus from whatever latest void!

Today was the last super warm day of the season where I am. You can just feel it. Down here there is mid summer reprieve in the form of climbing elevation. So when I go out on the mountain it's actually the perfect temp when it's 90 degrees in town!
I love this time of year. Nothing is really shifting climate wise so my joints are not all fucked the fuck up. It's just this big slow amble into radiating sun and tall golden grass and ferns and sunflowers and welcome breeze and sweet flee...

When you're in a certain pocket of a certain special place for the first time in a year — and have gone through so many yet-to-be-integrated shifts during this time— you jostle your unstable spine down the washiest boardiest road to a particular patch of rocks that you are emotionally attached to from last time, rub your butt and appendages over said friends, then compare your flailings (which are really the most organic summarizations of one's entire current self) to the exac... 2024-08-12 03:46:03 +0000 UTC View Post
vorite images yesterday. It was the first time this season I was able to actually get out into the deep Colorado wilderness. It was really special. I think this special day is reflected in what I captured (better than it could be in words) so I’m excited to share.
These are shots of a computer screen.

Trees are sanctuaries. Whoever knows how to speak to them, whoever knows how to listen to them, can learn the truth. They do not preach learning and precepts, they preach, undeterred by particulars, the ancient law of life. — Hermann Hesse2024-08-02 23:02:22 +0000 UTC View Post
Wow. I’ve been bed and floor ridden for 16 days. It’s a record. This body prison I wouldn’t wish on anyone. I’ve been crying a lot every day.
But I made it outside today. It was very short and very sweet and gave me everything I needed. Every step leading up to my scary exodus was a big push. Everything hurts. But brain and heart need mountains. I almost didn’t make it. But I did. I allowed for some creative expression and let everything else flow behind it. The magic came to...

I shared one of these with T club a couple weeks back when I didn’t know I was going to put these on the wide open web.
“When you realize you’re alone in a certain desert for the first time in 2 years you slather your body across the earth and let it remind you again that you are already and always home.”
I actually don’t have any lumbar patrons right now 😂 so hello abyss.

With some really fabulous people in one of my favorite places in the US. Really grateful for feel good connections and creative collaborations that leave me feeling fulfilled and worthy of participating in things like this. Good people make it more feasible to for me to be surrounded by comfortable bodies while in a hurting one (something that is inherently very much not fun). It allows me some moments of social normalcy and connection which is something I always long for to combat my near co...
