Writing by Allison:
Running, an open field, with nothing but a black sky out in front of you, big enough to swallow you, big enough to make you feel as if your significance might not mean something
I wish the Big Dipper would come down and scoop me up, I want to float, be cradled by the universe
Because I know you can’t always have a person hold your hand, even if you are scared, because there are some things you just have to do and nobody can hold your hand
And there’s something in the back of my head telling me everything is going to be just fine, when looking at the stars, they practically spell out “ITS OK”
From the tips of your fingernails, to the heels of your feet, you are made of star stuff, cosmic lattes, you matter
I used to have a nightmare as a kid, I was surrounded by darkness and then all of a sudden every object, person, feeling, everything that ever existed in my life, collided in on itself. A giant mass of a mess, floating right in front of me
My stomach hurts, bring me a butterfly net, please catch whatever is inside of me, put it in a jar, label it “ITS OK”
Its ok

silent figures in a film
hands are shaking never still
dancing on the lawn
nodding along
nodding along
nodding along
i will dye my hair
always moving always moving
calm and slow calm and slow
calm and slow all alone
drifting through a darkened room
i hear sounds i dont want to
tying ribbons to black balloons
goodbye for now
goodbye for now
goodbye for now
dancing on the lawn
nodding along
nodding along
nodding along
i will dye my hair
always moving always moving
calm and slow calm and slow
calm and slow
autre nom

lay in the road red coat
everything youve ever known
cotton coast softened skull
everything youve ever known
it goes away it goes away
it goes away it all goes away
circle homes friendly folks
harvard notes it goes away
often smoke orphan throat
laundry soap it goes away
everything you love the most
it goes away it goes away

im warmer on the holidays
parents sip their chardonnay
dont you want to be like you used to?
harvard colors poison spill
leave like david copperfield
pepper on the trampoline
wrapping paper money
dont you want to feel like you used to?
smaller next to monuments
pilot never wants to land
i like it how your nose is shaped
the movies dont make me afraid
why wont they leave you at home by yourself?
sugar on my orange clothes
sugar-covered autumn clothes
cartons of drano
tulip in your raincoat
dont you want me to move around like i used to?
i separate myself
it doesnt sound nice
it doesnt sound nice
