It’s a strange feeling to not miss anything or anyone and to not feel haunted. Maybe because I’m writing again.

Dreamt of post WW3 Paris. I’m in a surviving family’s bunker, looking out at thousands of rows of bunkers covered in vibrant graffiti. Skaters’ playground, mesmerizing. The family are found people, Indian, Nigerian, French. They celebrate every event with paper flowers, rituals.

Micro dream about two foxes emerging unscathed from the snow after a fire, one called Flame and the other called Destiny.

Deliciously lush lazy summer days, drifting between daydreams and sleep, floating under the trees and endless blue sky

Woke from a micro dream where we were hanging up a banner saying: We begin again, but not from this world.

Dreamt wild dogs growled outside the broken window in the dead of night. I shout loudly in defense and we have a standoff. My shouts turn into barks and then I’m howling, howling, turning into some other primal thing, and even the dogs are afraid.

Dreamt I was in a luxurious resort where we all lounged in silk robes in dark wood paneled chambers. My suite was draped in billowing, diaphanous tapestries of deep midnight and lapis blues, adorned with intricate embroidery of entwining vines and peacocks. Of course I take pics.

Dreamt I lived in war torn France. I’m an ordinary shop girl by day and scheming with the rebellion by night. My room is hidden inside an old bookstore with a false storefront. The city lost power, there’s only candlelight. Danger lurks everywhere.

I can’t recall the last time I’d seen Mia and now here she was at my front door, head shaved, asking for a ride to the airport.

We create sublime chaos every night stories mind-reeling and heart-rending the silk of dreams slipping through trembling fingers as eyes open to morning’s harsh punishment and we forever dwell in between dark & light creation & destruction magic & horror

Blue sky, jasmine intoxication, buzz of bee, cry of dove and crow and hawk, creak of mind and bones, warmth of sun, roar of plane, promise of moon

Picking a fragrant, sunset-hued rose from my garden to place in my room, on my desk, where I have time to create and dream and write letters to loved ones. This is the pinnacle of achievement, I can die in peace.

Dream week with my bestie. Talking all day with coffee and tea, doing some art, laptops off, lounge in garden, talking all evening with martinis and snacks. Sleep in, repeat

Where are we? Dreamt of madness and war, of perfumed cabarets in Paris, of panthers and patchouli. Dreamt our flesh was shot through by immortal light and we morphed ecstatically on the battlefield.

Yesterday, with glimpses of tomorrow
Close up of Double Delight rose in full bloom. A dew drop in the creamy center, magenta outer petals. Sketchbook cover designed by David Shrigley. Features hand scripted words: “It has always been my desire to be an artist but I find it incredibly fucking difficult” This sits in a small wicker tray. Background, a small circular watercolor paint set from the Tate, a bottle of Sailor ink, a small box of carbon ink cartridges. Screenshot with subtitles from one of Monty Don’s gardening shows. Beautiful English manor with green lawn and garden in background, a man and woman chatting in foreground. The woman is saying, “I’m going to have my heart cut out when I die and”View walking up Howard toward Second street in San Francisco. Vintage red Dahl-Beck Electric Co. shop sign in mid frame. Tall glass building where LinkedIn offices are, reflecting clouds in distance.
