distancebetweenhearts asked: I was blessed to have seen this amazing group in person at Simmons College on Saturday night at the Love on Top event and can I just say, it has changed my outlook on life, and love <3
wemockbirds asked: To be honest, I was really nervous when you guys announced you were adding a new artist to the group. I couldn't imagine how you'd find a poet as beautiful and talented as your others but "Waffles" eased my fears. Zora is fantastic!

“
I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz, or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off. I love you as certain dark things are to be loved, in secret, between the shadow and the soul.
I love you as the plant that never blooms but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers; thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance, risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.
I love you...

Went to see strivers row at simmons tonight.
There are no emotions left in my body.
I am but a walking carcus.
Dead.
