Sunflower Moon
[video description]
Woods is a White transmasc person with a buzzcut and a gray beanie sitting crosslegged on a light mahogany-ish hardwood floor. Their back rests on white wainscot paneling. They are holding a lilac lined journal. There is a black Jansport backpack to the left of them. It is open with a shoebox-sized plastic bin filled with tarot decks - like the Citadel tarot deck - and mason jars filled with sea glass and pebbles peaking out. Lying face up on the floor in front of the backpack is the Seeds of Wisdom from the Divine Feminine Tarot Deck, underneath which Lecoq’s The Moving Body is sandwiched between a yellow journal and a white journal. To their right is an unopened black journal. They are wearing loose, black linen overalls and a black tank top with white stitching outlining the straps. Draped halfway down their arms is a black and white plaid button-up shirt. They are wearing Cruel Ruby colored lipstick.
SUNFLOWER MOON
It’s called “Sunflower Moon."
moonlight inside me
refracting the sun
everyone arrives
for the light
but the dark
draws no one
I painted under the stars
like Vincent, I went
where the colors are
where the colors are
Vincent, I listened
Vincent, I cared
Vincent, I’m sorry
no one was there
but the moon
me and the world have been drownin’
craving that motherfuckin’ Craken
but the moon shows us our shadows
and I fell in love with dark
Starry, Starry Night wrapped around me
a portal to another galaxy
but the earth calls me home
pulled in like the tide
and pushed out to see
the physics of diving
into a shadow
and coming up
to breathe
