CCLX.
In the same way a photograph is equal to a thousand words, it would follow that a single word can also be a thousand images—ten thousand, even; a million, an impossibly large amount of sights and meanings and people. For example, what is BLUE? How do you define BLUE? And I’d say: it’s a pen, an ocean, most of an iris, a satin bow, a grave-side bouquet, a January, a July, a painting, a vein,...

CCLXXVIII.
threadsuns: I make so many big plans, and none of them involve another person. Not anyone real, at least, just future capital-t Them, they who have no defining characteristic as of yet, aside from making me laugh too loudly in public places. I feel as if I’m missing out on the quiet things people do for one another; making two cups of tea instead of one, sharing the newspaper in your underwear...

"When You Ask About What Came Before," by Ilse...
white adj. 1. Free from color; the hue of new snow or milk. As in, weary from absorption you've taken to wearing white when you pass through town, past other people's elementary schools and young bodies in damp garages, past neighbors who don't know your secrets except what sneaks through the walls. What's left to tell with words, after your past has flung itself around the world in...

((CCLXXVI.))
“We have to stop being afraid of being brave,” somebody has written, on the inside of a sticky silver candy wrapper, and I’m standing in the train station in the middle of the day staring dumbly down at this teetering pile of trash, like this is a sign and something important with a capital ‘I’ will happen and the universe is profound. Maybe it is— Maybe there is meaning inside every scrawl of...
