# About me
writing/spoken word tumblr
flickr
my name is melissa.
i was born on the cusp of summer and fall in 1992, which feels like it was about twelve years ago - my maturity level reflects this. as a result, i am a poor college student. (if you would like to assist me in this endeavour, feel free to note me about receiving your own handwritten copy of my work and letter!)
i do not like certain words. (anion, anyways (because it's not really a word!), armpit, baked, blastula, breadth, bun, clotted, crusty, cusp, feasible, fondle, frottage, horndog, hospice, lest, mayochup, pusillanimous, refurbished, scalp, smug, sustenance, waft.)
i like quailman and dirty dick dastardly, and i hope you know who they are. i love with more than a love, and i quote things (in this case, edgar allan poe; in others, harry potter, 90s songs, and chuck palahniuk ) off the top of my head because it makes me feel good.
to do list: breathe, laugh, use tumblr less frequently.
inspiration| tim walker | irving penn | emily soto | mark harless | anna demarco | larissa felsen | harley weir | tamara lichtenstein | karen jerzyk | jimmy o'donnell | jeff bark | marta bevacqua | chuck palahniuk | charles bukowski | jonathan safran foer | kurt vonnegut | franz kafka | geoff trenchard | buddy wakefield | everyone on my watch list

watching how people living walking step by step im thinking my life cruel and not deep want be ruler of life chosen
no sense of life sorrows dozen there no place to go just sit and cry life is cruel im want die find own estate neverending with death date dont go lady even when you such bonds create
let me me sacrifice because of my bad mental state
hate and love that what people often see
be a happy and dont become sad me
life death its just gate go and change your life dont just wait
hapiness cand be find there and here
take care dear...

The stark tones of your imagery is very powerful. To quote Nietzsche, "you must have chaos in your soul to give birth to a dancing star." You have many dancing stars, and we adore them, but it appears to be at the price of your sanity.
Quite a highΒ stake trade off, don't you think?

I stumbled onto your work by accident when clicking casually at the "more like this" section on my own poetry.
This is very good work, don't stop ever.

in case you were wondering: i bought you the premium. dA decided to be a fool and figured it wouldn't put my name up there, even though i selected the option to display my username. all of that aside, i thought i should let you know that i love you. you're always in my thoughts <3

Hey! I know this must be terribly random but I came across that Eating Disorder poem / story type thing you submitted a few years back-
It amazed me how i connected with it, i'm struggling with binge eating disorder now, i have for the past 6 months or so
My point is, youre a wonderful writer, don't ever let anyone tell you you don't have talent
Have a good evening!
