an ode to danny

I have a soft spot for the name Danny.

Don’t ask why. I couldn’t explain it if I tried. I’ve always loved words and the ways some take up space. How stuff your mouth with marbles, others roll off the tongue smooth as sweet vermouth.


Kind of like Danny. It’s a soft name. One anyone can take and make their own. There’s a little joy in the way my face scrunches up, a smile breaking across my face as I call out this sugar spun name. The way my voice goes up an octave as I draw out the final sweet syllables, denoting my affection. 


Danny is the sweet cream sliding down my throat. The trail of kisses down my thighs. Bubbling giggles erupting from feather light tickles.


Destined to be loved by me.


XOXO,

Michaela

Nosferatu

Image
  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

Image
 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 ...

Like Clockwork

Like Clockwork Hi everyone! This short story was born from an idea I had a couple years ago. I just sat down last night and it poured out of me. I'm glad I'm able to share it with all of you. My inspirations for it were Frankenstein and Robecca Steam from the Monster High franchise. I wanted to explore mad science and grief. No particular reason. The idea just seemed interesting to me. Content Warning: This story contains themes of grief, death of a child, disinterment (grave digging), body horror, and emotional distress . Reader discretion is advised. There was a storm the day Becca died. It was an accident, they said. The roads were slick with rain. The driver may or may not have been on his phone.  But the collision was deadly.  Metal tore through muscles and tissue. Bones twisted in impossible angles.  It all ended with two battered and bruised cars, and a girl who’d never wake up again.  As Becca’s coffin was lowered into the damp, unholy ground, many gave thei...
