god bless the kind eye that falls on you & chooses to loiter. god bless the satin hand that rubs you the right way…

“I’m in really love with you” is such a beautiful thing to say to someone. D’Angelo’s “Really Love” is one of the best long songs ever.

[serpent @serpentwithfeet]

do not undervalue or underestimate your rage… rage is a map… rage is an engine… rage can carry you from the old into the new. honor your rage. reject the tyrannical “its okay”

[serpent @serpentwithfeet]

love & safety are tethered to each other

[serpent @serpentwithfeet]

[serpent @serpentwithfeet]

we gotta stop handing over our hearts to folks with clumsy hands

[serpent @serpentwithfeet]

[serpent @serpentwithfeet]

weak hugs are a turn off. i need you to hold me the same way you hold your landlord accountable.

[serpent @serpentwithfeet]

[serpent @serpentwithfeet]
