journaling

 Before I was obsessed with Michael Jackson (2009) and then Josh Groban (2010-2018?) and then Adam Lambert (2019-?), it was Tom Cruise

Strangely, that obsession had been quiet for a long time, until I started following som fan accounts on Instagram.  They really had some very triggering posts with videos of Tom -- of people's favorite photos and movie excerpts.

This was a portion of what I wrote


Tom cruise

a burned ember 

from an exploding star

rushing, glowing into the universe

somehow provoking an even bigger star to form

when the original explosion(s) were long since faded

except from his mind

where they will likely only continue to grow

An exploding star

Abuse can destroy , 

or it can give someone the drive to thrive
