haikus

Hi everyone! Still going strong with poetry, I wanted to share some haikus I wrote yesterday! I'm hoping to post my review of The Love Witch later this week so stay tuned for that! Anyways, hope you enjoy!


A Warm Spot

warm sun gently glows

bees buzz by with the soft breeze

bejeweled leaves sway


Late Night Talking

ocean eyes meet mine

we laugh and chat late at night

i hope he likes me


Midnight Sky

we roam the darkness

full moon shines down to guide us

we are the weirdos



XOXO, Michaela

Nosferatu

  Over winter break, I had the pleasure to see Robert Eggers' most recent masterpiece Nosferatu . This gothic horror film is a remake of the 1922 silent German Expressionist film Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror . The sets and sound design were phenomenal. The acting? Chef's kiss. Lily-Rose Depp's performance was fantastic! A true standout amongst the star-studded cast. She perfectly captured the quiet resilience and inner darkness of Ellen Hutter brilliantly.  Bill Skarsgård completely immersed himself into Count Orlok. Every character was brought to life so clearly, they might as well have been real. Eggers truly elevated this film, not only building off of its themes of "The Other", but furthering it as an analysis and commentary on women's existence in Victorian society. I felt totally and utterly immersed into the world's inner workings. Here's a quick synopsis: In the 1830s, estate agent Thomas Hutter travels to Transylvania for a fateful meeting ...

Product Review: Nature's Touch

 Hello everyone!  Today is a little different from before! I will be giving my honest review for one of my favorite skincare brands, Nature's Touch. So buckle up and get ready for the ride. Nature's Touch is a wellness brand based in Dominica that is dedicated to providing natural health products to its customers. A childhood friend of my mother, founder Misana Harris has changed what wellness looks like in Dominica. She is a natural health care specialist and herbalist who founded Nature's Touch Body Therapy and Wellness Services in 2003. Working in natural healthcare has been a childhood aspiration for the entrepreneur. As someone who suffers with acne and eczema, it was hard finding products that were gentle on my skin while cleansing it thoroughly. From Dove to Aveeno, I'd tried almost everything. While some products were better than others, nothing really helped clear up my skin. It really gets into your pores and scrubs out all the oil, dirt, bacteria to keep the ...

 Following the events of the 2024 US election, I need an outlet. Enjoy some of my poetry(?). I’m tired. Do you know why?  They tell me to be patient and kind. To smile in the face of those who hate my existence.  Black. Woman. The daughter of Caribbean immigrants. For too long, they have said, “when they go low, we go high”. Why? Just for them to spit in my eyes. To kick me while I’m down. I am bloodied and bruised. I’m tired. Tired of this godforsaken country. Built on the blood and bones of my kin. Whose lifeline was dependent on mine. My exhaustion. My anger. My time. My life.  Fuck America. Fuck white people. Fuck all of you. Fuck being nice. I wanna cry, but I’m afraid that once I do, I won’t stop. Not until I’m hollowed out. Not until somehow we can fix this. Not until somehow I can be transported to a reality where this isn’t happening. Goodnight Goodbye
