she'll suck blood and whistle my marrow clean.
Time has a remarkable way of bringing people back to you. One day, walking down a dusty road, you'll see the grave of someone you once knew.
Hello
Emmett (or Emmy).
Awkward, reticent student.
Circumlocutory, hyperbolic.
Introvert.
I am the thing of old calling at the crack of dawn; I bear water.
I don't hate people but I cannot bear the crush of crowds, of unruly conversation.
The things one feels most keenly for; one spends more time thinking than talking about them.
About this Journal
This journal is mainly about the life and lies belonging to one soul.
(Basically I have human skin wrapped around my bones, and I try to make much use of that fact.)
It is about a student's pursuits and torments (own dips in the fiery lake), books, people and oddities encountered, expeditions outdoors or in armchairs.
Scathing account or sordid lies? Mask or warm meat? The sharp stone that tears the soles of my feet.
Deeply personal until it cuts; that sounds like a bit too much (fun).
A few literary quotes scattered about, (trypanophobic34 's beautiful phrase) brutal reflections; some things split-second fascinating.
Oh verbosity, like a virus that wrecks my system night and day, that commandeers my train of thought. It diffuses into everything.
Things I Like
Dark things, liquid voices.
