drugsdesire 9,868 Posted May 23, 2020 i'm pretty sure she says gabapentin! a medication prescribed for anxiety !! I take it too, it can also make you drowsy which makes sense with what she says after makes sense but does she say the I before gabapentin or no bc “and as I fell asleep I gabapentin...” doesn’t make sense 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mafiosa 1,089 Posted May 23, 2020 i think her original post came from a place of petty boredom tbh. she doesn't feel angry to me, just confident and fully realized. but maybe i'm reading this wrong. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FredRed 4,836 Posted May 23, 2020 Editing, but Sylvia I knew what you meant when you talked about swimming in the ocean and leaving your patent leather black shoes pointed towards it while you swam It tickled you to leave them there It was the thought of a young child or of a lost fairy It reminded me of who I am That's why I'm now at this facility by the ocean And why I go barefoot and why I go calmly Why I leave my shoes up by the stairway I do it for you and I do it for me because having learned from others and from you I learned there was a missing piece to finding existential calmness and and domestic bliss to lead to peace You see, you cant fall in love with a man like Ted or a musician who sings about being free A woodworker doesn't a good man make if he wants his work to be on TV You have to separate the wheat from the shaft You have to be discerning It takes diligence, consequence and other things to keep that sea from churning and to keep yourself from longing to let those painted waves take you under It isn't just the water black that makes the body plunder from high sea cliffs I know, my dear I wish that I had been here or there I wish that you were here now If you're not now because who knows how these things work? Sylvia, Marilyn, Violet, Diana All of my kind women Who came before me Blonde I dyed my hair black for you I turned my back in that black pond I swear I wont stop until I'm dead and here I am at 34 and what for? To bring my pair of baby pattern leather shoes to turn them the other way towards the sea cliff stairs, not at the ocean To bring them back up safe to the facility instead and I think of you as I walk to the 280 wooden steps dynamited into the cliffs 100 years before I let myself into room 2 and got undressed I was sunburnt Contemplative and sore and as I fell asleep I gathered (?) I lay my head on the pillow and stretched my hand out on the cool white linen and sang you a lemon melody I kept the shoes on the sill by the window seat in case you got restless and wanted to leave and I hugged you with my baby's breath and sang your spirit to bed the way I would have if you were my child or if I had children My Queen Anne's lace heart weightless on your little head If anyone knows the bolded part please lmk Ok I'm not trying to be an ass but there is one line I have a problem with and it's things like this that could come back to bite her from well, critics. You have to separate the wheat from the shaft I listened a few times closely and that is what she said I think. The expression is actually "You have to separate the wheat from the chaff" From the web. Definition: Select the valuable things/people and take them away from the non-valuable things/people. This expression first appeared in the Bible. It is a metaphor that speaks about how God will separate those who are worthy and those who are unworthy. His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will clear his threshing floor, gathering his wheat into the barn and burning up the chaff with unquenchable fire. It comes from the age-old practice of literally separating wheat from chaff. When winnowing grain, farmers wanted to remove all chaff from wheat. In the literal meaning, chaff is the husk around a seed, which one does not eat. In order to eat the wheat, one must remove the chaff. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sweetie 6,627 Posted May 23, 2020 This was really beautiful. The background music is so gorgeous. A whole ass mood. I wish it was a song instead of spoken word though. I'm almost ready to forgive her for all the buffoonery and charades. Keep that typewriter under lock and key mama. 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
