my name is gretchen. people often misunderstand me when i tell them this and call me rachel. feel free to address me with your favourite name.
i’m clairaudient. i split my time listening, writing, and learning but am perpetually loving. i am also known for flipping cards and admiring palms.
in my spare moments i swing barefoot from mango tree branches and groove to whatever moves me at the time. i have a soft spot for hand made instruments accompanied by foreign languages – and dirty ragga.
i am presently collecting letters to jumble after my name which i will continue to barter for currency with. ba, ma, phd, etc. i will use this currency to build an artistic, eco, love retreat where we can all escape to create, connect, and bite each others toes.
i’m a wolf in sheep’s clothing. a black sheep, naturally.

Writing
dependence
Unity is a single line on a mirrored table.
Inside
I ran for a pen today, desperate to filter my fumbling feelings. You always come to me with such urgency.
Carnival
They licked sticky fingers, fed each other fairy floss, and kissed candy apple off the other’s bottom lip.
Awake
It’s hard to turn your back when you know someone is still watching you
A reflection
I suddenly feel safe enough to smile. A little embarrassed. A little ashamed.
Waiting
Props are for little girls who need boys to rock their worlds.
