emergency scrap paper
fold it in half

a paper aeroplane
tiny cups and hats
rip it

name it flip, love it
lose it to fire
use the right corner

occupy the pages
put it in your pocket

Tori Amos Tori amos tori Amos tori amos. How I have enjoyed our Autumn walks to this reinvented classical romantic piano mythological odyssey named Night of Hunters released September 20th 2011.
Wait for the light to be just right, dawn sipping away the corners of the horizon, and the ice grab of the dark setting in… Watch the water fight the ice fight the wind fight the trees fight the warmth of heartbeats.
How long can I walk? How deep is my coat? What can I carry? Where is the edge of the moon? Who whispers to stars? The sea is breaking things. The snow is blinding. I see your ghost. Fearlessness unfreezes me.
