"I have moved around quite a bit in my day, living in Arizona and Los Angeles during my formative years. I’m currently living in Chicago, where I am studying the music business. I founded the queer collective Bad Egg. In the past, my artistic focus was geared more towards marker drawings and journaling. Recently though, I've taken to writing poetry as a way to externalize my internal thoughts, feelings about myself, and my environment. I have not been educated in the arts or creative writing other than general education. I feel that this has made my work more personal since it's what I want to make the way I want to make it."

​how many ghosts does it
​​take to change a lightbulb


the light burnt out in the laundry room
I'm waiting
for the ghost we found when we moved in
to be waiting
for me
in the dark
waiting
for one of us
I haven't seen him in awhile
but I'm still here
doing my laundry in the dark
they fixed the light in the laundry room and I never saw the ghost but who knows he could still be waiting in the shadows the light never hits waiting until the light in the laundry room burns out again


take them off/leave them in
​
the gravel in my shoes
keeps giving me blisters
I could just take them off
shake them out
but I've been used to it for so long
and what difference would it make
for me to empty them out
when one day they will be full
to the brim
again
