Watch out for me, I will make you free

So I was looking at listings for jobs and internships, and came across some online fashion magazine seeking contributors and editors who fit the description of "fashion lovers who love fashion." •headdesk• I guess they're serious about needing writers and editors. Aside from that, this process intimidates the life out of me

I usually HATE hearing about people's dreams, but I loved your poem.

Ditto this. That was awesome.

Aww thanks! I actually like hearing about people's dreams when they want to tell me, but generally I hate reading about them.

It depends on how engaging the dream is. I have one friend who blogs on LJ with a dream tag, and I enjoy her dreams. My dreams tend to be rather coherent and very relevant to my daily life, so I think they're interesting to talk about. Plus, I can sum them up pretty well.

But the poetry thing is brilliant - it works wonderfully. I might use it for my dream journal, which I did in college (I loved it) but I've gotten lazy about it.

agreed.

I like it. interesting how it may speak to how your brain and my brain are different, since it's enough work for me to scribble dream notes in the first place, let alone make good poetry. trying to make poetry (with all those nice carefully chosen words) is a whole trip of self-censorship that would kabosh my ability to freely express what I remember while I remember it...
