i’m quite positive that i’m slowly slipping into madness, that is, if the process hasn’t fully gripped its fingers ‘round my neck already .
it’s a pleasurable pain though, the descent as well as the controlled asphyxiation .

SAM let me play in her closet.
i was like a little kid in a ball pit, but instead of spheres of primary colors, i had louboutin, givenchy, manolo, pierre hardy, prada and yves st. laurent as my playthings .
the maxim on WOODY GUTHRIE’s guitar .
i’ve been on a writing rampage recently .
seeped into the pages lie truths and lies and all the in betweens.
i hope to one day play moleskine jenga .
that is, should i ever find someone so disarming.
feeding off the filth .
the fauna of echo park lake .
last thursday ANA and i traversed all of la .
what a good sport that little lady is ! straight from her shoot with RONY, ANA came along for the shoot STAMP and i conceptualized for RUBY .
off we hustled downtown to the studio where GUISEPPE and NATE were ready to shoot .
after the final photo shoot of the day (and a brief visit from the cops), i had all the girls involved in the shoot put on the same neon pink matte lipstick we had RUBY wear, and had STAMP capture the moment .
from l-r: me, MELE, RUBY, ANA and ALEJANDRA
