HNT – Still life with brand and apple.

Filed under: hnt — Mollena Williams @ 8:38 am

The apple, which is, as we know, the Fruit Of Knowledge and Medical Intervention,  is a Pink Lady.

The brand is of my initials, MW, flowing together.

It was burned onto my skin over Folsom Street Fair weekend 6 years ago.

It was a way for me to take possession of myself, and to remember what choice means.

Remembering that it wasn’t all that long ago people were, perforce, branded as property gave a pretty profound twist to this newly hip fetish …and i wanted to take that back for myself :-)

Happy Happy HNT!

Rope rants.

 Leave it to Gray to go ranting about some shit.  The subject of the most recent Graydancer’s Ropecast included a rant (which isn’t all that ranty, so if you are hoping for spittle-flying desk-pounding histrionics, you’ll be sorely disappointed. I kinda was hoping for some heavy breathing and shouting, but noooooo…) about the difficulty of teaching [...]

digging. uncut.

I have too many.   Identities. I do not even feel compelled to list them all lest they take on the glib slickness I am striving to escape even now.   I do not want to be looked at.   I need to be seen.   And using attitude as costuming, my history as the [...]
