Welcome!

First, I have to confess that I have endless questions, and few answers.

Without answers, what I rely on is values, principles, and an insatiable desire to explore the ever unfurling mystery… which is why I create. Do you have similiar inclinations? Perfect, we’ll get along swimmingly.

What you’ll find here is poetry, essay-ish things, and other stuff that the muse delivers, poured from from these values and principles, at the center of which are resting within the body and nourishing the creative, creaturely, feminine erotic soul.

I am passionate about emphasizing that the embodied feminine is a state of ALIVENESS — not sexuality, which it has been woefully confused with in our current cultural landscape.

One of my desires is for you to remember that being an embodied, hot, artful, alive woman doesn’t mean you are being sexual, doesn’t mean you should hide yourself or be ashamed of your natural inclination toward beauty, adornment, and self tending, and does not mean that you are required to answer to those who mistake your aliveness for sexual invitation.

While the erotic does encompass the sexual, it is far more all encompassing, and in my universe, eros is the creative, animating force of life — the divine mother — Shakti.

As an artist, you the n=1 experimental playground of this animating force, whatever you wanna call it.

You are a channel, a conduit of the beautiful capacity to feel, to open, to turn invisible inclinations into tangible, life-giving, nourishing forms.

I encourage all women to know their creative, erotic, sensual, creaturely nature deeply as a foundation for their well being and their sense of connection to themselves, and to all of life.

I am not here to be anyone’s guru, but to inspire by sharing what I’ve learned and am learning. And with the intention to create a very alive community along the way.

By the way, hi, I’m Faye.

Poetry is my first language — movement, of any and all forms — my second. In my spare time… I write, I paint (watercolor - so dreamy), I dance, I do handstands and sometimes pick up heavy weights, and I love love love to take very, very long walks and gaze at the trees and the clouds and the moon. I also enjoy repeating words for emphasis, and using semicolons. Also, I make up songs for my cat (Mabel the dream cat, I affectionaly purr to her). It’s the little things. Also also, I save lots of worms from near-certain sidewalk peril. And I firmly believe that brown butter chocolate is one of the most powerful substances in the universe.

Mostly, I feel everything into my bone marrow and that’s where I create from. I laugh as often as possible and I try not to write too many run-on sentences… but life is a run on sentence anyway so maybe I’m just being honest.
