I said thank you to my inner child today.

I kissed her cheeks and held her hands.

I marveled at my curls for the first time today.

Called my skin beautiful. Even the parts still grieving.

Told them they can stay as long as we love and we try.

In this season of fall and full moons and sweet apples. In this season of trying and crying and learning to write again. I started writing again. Started praying again. Thankful for the pathways, the windows left open. The breeze, the sunlight. You hug me so tightly, you do.

Ari Aster's Families On The Fritz

In Ari Aster’s 2016 short film C’est La Vie, Chester Crummings, a homeless man, speaks directly and combatively to camera about his life and society at large as he wanders the streets of LA, surviving, begging for change and casually murdering people. At one point, he says: “You know what Freud says about the nature of horror? He says it’s when the home becomes unhomelike. Unheimlich.” In Sig...
