Things I would like to write about more:

- artist + their gardens

- queer ecologies + the ethics of care

- books about female friendships

- visually impactful, aesthetically driven tv / film

- albums I’m fixated on

- growing up in Aotearoa/New Zealand + Australia, and the lack of education / language on colonialism

- literally just existing

The Digital Sappho

‘In all honesty, I want to die.’

Leaving for good after a good long cry,

She said: ‘We both have suffered terribly,

But Sappho, it is hard to say goodbye.’

I said: 'Go with my blessing if you go

Always remembering what we did. To me

You have meant everything, as you well know.

Yet lest it slip your mind, I shall review

Everything we have shared—the good

“But when you lie dead
No one will notice later or feel sad
Because you gathered no sprays from the roses
Of the pierian muses

Once lost in Hade's hall
You will be homeless and invisible
Another shadow flittering back and forth
With shadows of no worth”
