Jacob Marley is a ghost… That does not mean that Jacob Marley was not once a man. Recently I was told a picture of me could not be me because I am a 32 year old man, and the person in the picture was a woman in her mid twenties. I lovingly pointed out to [...]
This morning I find myself at one of three buildings at Harmony House, a beautiful poly compound an hour north of New York City. I was invited up here by one of the members for New Years eve, and I am feeling so incredibly grateful for the experience. Not for New Years, during which I [...]
It was a night during my move. He and I were curled up in bed, and gloves went on. A finger slid in, hungry and needful. A second. He went to slide in a third, and I melted into tears. He went back without a word to two fingers and slowly slid and out, moving [...]
