The shape of me
The way I appear is not how I imagined I looked when I was posing.
There is so fucking much I want to say.
Taking Flight
This isn't only about them and their goals. It's about our goals together.
My Exhibitionism
Every once in a while, the fact that I'm an exhibitionist becomes a bit of a problem for me. See, it used to be easier to scratch that itch.
