I Want To Thank You For Being My Friend

For KT

I first met Katie eleven years ago on Ep. One day this whirling dervish of charm & wit arrived into my life & I loved every second of it.

Katie was one of a kind

I don’t know how many people here on similar worlds had the pleasure of knowing her. Certainly many on experience project did, & we were lucky to have her in our circle.

Katie passed away a few months ago. Cancer.

Please, if you feel the urge to send an email I ask that you resist. Let her family be. As much as we loved her to them we are just a bunch a Internet weirdos dotted around the globe. Please just let them grieve in peace.

We thought you ought to know though. & you are invited to leave a message in the comments here if you wish, or via her profile:

So, Katie; from all of us - We love you. ❤️ Sleep well.


The Tree - Sophie Cabot Black

And when we woke it was like nothing
Ever dreamt before this: wrist, neck,
The hollow behind the knee, your hair
Filling my hands, all of it while we turned
And turned until we were unforgivable,
Adamant with bark, as if a wayward god had come
Upon us, bewitching breast to breast, fingers
Still tracing a vein, a thigh
No longer intent on destination
But in the keep of one limb resting on another, breath
Lingering in leaves, at the edge of a road
Where we were once lost, your hand faithful
In its nest, your mouth on my mouth
Caught, our feet tangled, looking for earth.
