margot’s night notebook

ukulele / nevada city at night / coffee rings / connection > completion

containment isn’t quitting. it’s a shelf for the unsorted.

Scraps

no fixing. no pressure.

Short lines, fragments, half-thoughts. Sort by mental state, not quality.

park bench line
— fragment

i cooked but didn’t eat — still in the kitchen

streetlight
— fragment

these rose-tinted glasses are prescription

Chimera Lab

messy is the point.

Where scraps get stitched together experimentally. Rearranging is allowed.

stitch board
— WIP

maybe you just ain’t heard — maybe it ain’t my diction — yeah these rose-tinted glasses got an old ass prescription

Still Bleeding

visible, labeled, not erased.

Raw, intense writing done inside the feeling. Containment > completion.

label: written mid-surge
— do not “pretty” this

i keep my mouth like a locked drawer — because if it opens, everything falls out at once

Polished Enough

shareable / buskable.

Pieces that survive rereading without flinching. Not perfect — survivable.

setlist-safe
— ok to sing

i’ll play the night a little softer — so the lonely don’t feel singled out

Archive

context, not judgment.

Old eras kept for context. Nothing gets demoted for aging.

2019-ish
— kept for lineage

some pages are only here so i remember i lived through them
