excerpt hearts is a thought exploration, an abstracted

stereotype of our lesbian past lives.

we are an under rehearsed cover band.

communicating through song and non-melodic momentary processing.

we are exploring the power dynamic of this co-dependent

relationship via live performance. i need to be amplified and Tess has the mic, in hand. our spacial relationship indicates our two dimensional platonically romantic relationship we made, just for this. love will prevail.
