Menstrala

Menstrala, or Menstrual blood art by Vanessa Tiegs

​Typing as fast as I can without editing because this is the time that I have.
Purnima, powerful full moon coming and I'm waiting for the blood to come. This time makes me, um, extra sensitive... to sound, to light, to other people's energy. I wish I had time to research this more. I'm certain someone else has had these thoughts. Probably Uma Dinsmore-Tuli for sure.

​Oh wait, I am a householder, and meanwhile the world goes on.
