Force of Nature
I am less than a week until my 26th birthday.
I feel like I know myself less than I had a year ago.
Maybe that’s a good thing; am I growing into a person that I’ll be proud of?
This is my first experiment with double exposure AND self-timer. I’m not a huge fan of being in front of the camera.
To be a “tremendous force”
Spike field of a person.
Hard to love,
harder to get rid of.
I am erosion;
I am electricity in the air;
I am dust storms.
I am a bared teeth mistaken for a smile;
I am hair standing on end;
I am stillness, but not calmness.
My bones are etched from the bitter cold of winter.
My skin is soaked with the afternoon bake of summer.
How does it feel being this thing?
This wretched thing. 
Song of the week is Shelved by The Mountain Goats. This seems to be a time of change for a lot of people around me. This song is about the white knuckle grip of trying to avoid change.
Your assignment for this week is to treat yourself kindly.
Till next time, friends.
Happy Birthday! Great photos and poems!
