Reading Time: 6 minutes Too many posts of a more serious nature recently, it’s time to talk of some more fun things. Perhaps you might call this my primary fetish – the original sin, as it were. I have been fascinated by high heels and women’s shoes for as long as I can remember. Some speculation is that it may have… Read More »
Reading Time: 4 minutes You’re Worthless So I Subtweet I won’t ever ask you questions I won’t communicate Or share My thoughts With you, I’m too cowardly. I tell My friends about you. I make incorrect assumptions about you and your words, to mock you and your pathetic life. I know nothing about you I never read your blogs. I pull your words… Read More »
Reading Time: 4 minutes The Hero Is The Villain My mind is awash with swirling thoughts crashing into each other and not having anywhere to safely stow them whilst I’m processing the dozen other thoughts that were already crashing together inside my head. Sensory overload is a documented state. Only once my thoughts have calmed down to a gentler slower movement am I… Read More »
Reading Time: 3 minutes It’s been a while since my last post in this series. I thought I would discuss a different facet – Amnesia.
Reading Time: 2 minutes It’s that time again. I went back to read what I wrote this time last year. This year there is one more year of melody getting stronger and having her own perspective. This adds a different poignancy in that following the ‘outing’ conversation with my father it was clear that the same conversation if my mother had… Read More »
Reading Time: 5 minutes Colour Me Stupid The #F4TFriday prompt #111 asks for words to live by: “Not my circus, Not my (flying) Monkeys” For the most part, I don’t have many happy memories as they occurred either side of something unpleasant imprinted in my mind. Sadly the good parts were blocked along with any unpleasantness. There are now some better… Read More »
Reading Time: 2 minutes In a different frame of mind this post could have been for the #F4TFriday #110 prompt of Taboo. Content Notice Needle Play Pictures In the original Twitter thread about what is Taboo ? There were a few references to medical play, including needle play. For those unable to proceed here’s a picture of kittens whilst you press… Read More »
Reading Time: 4 minutes Let’s face it, the majority of the words we live by are given to us, with varying degrees of force, by people who want to control us, make us conform to their concepts of how we should live. They are thrown at us all our lives, if we let them.
Reading Time: 6 minutes Content Advisory General references to rape and rape-play. NO details or descriptions. Light in the Dark Do you acknowledge CNC/RAPE fantasy and DV/RAPE to be totally different ? CNC is seen as a “taboo” kink – mainly by those of us who don’t understand what it involves. Far from any awkward ways of describing what is or… Read More »
Reading Time: 5 minutes It was an interesting tweet with many replies that Floss put out a few days ago asking what do we consider to be taboo ? There are macro taboos that we agree on as a society. There are micro taboos that could be for smaller communities or very personal.
Reading Time: 5 minutes SwirlingFire: Overshare (#sb4mh repost) I’ve chosen blog post #24 to submit to this weeks #sb4mh “Select a blog BEFORE you found #sb4mh”, This particular post (Jan 2019) was, on reflection, a very difficult and lonely time for me. 2018 had thrown some cleverly devious manipulation into the mix whilst I was deeply into pre trauma counselling. Someone I… Read More »
Reading Time: 6 minutes Content Notice – Incitement to suicide, proceed with caution In this week’s description for the #SB4MH prompt, Cat wrote: This week’s prompt is open but with a twist. Share the very first post that you wrote about mental health. Share the one you published before you knew about SB4MH. It can be about your issues or someone else’s issues.… Read More »
Reading Time: 4 minutes Mirage I’ve reached an unthought of number of 50 blogs posted and hosted with @sissymaidmelody (Swirlingfire: Posts). I’m still in my infancy of blogging. I like the mental process behind writing. It allows me to harness my thoughts in order to understand my life and to process the ebb and flow of past events. My blogs are all… Read More »
Reading Time: 5 minutes If there’s one thing I find really hard to come to terms with in personal relationships, it is taking things at face value.
Reading Time: 4 minutes Swirly’s Grand Day Out Born October 2016, a caged bird – released, broken, dull feathers, betraying a breath that was almost extinguished. Parallel similarities to the mythical Phoenix. From flames comes death (you google it) to a pile of Ashes. The time between fully destroyed and dormant, until tiny glowing embers caught on the wind, enough to repeat… Read More »
Reading Time: 5 minutes Selfie or Selfish Quick glimpses into people’s lives are fascinating. I find myself zooming in on the background to gain a peek into personalities. All I gain from this is that I have a remarkably messy bedroom and many of you have storage solutions that would put Marie Kondo to shame! Why do adults on Twitter social media… Read More »
Reading Time: 4 minutes For many subs of all genders a collar is the ultimate visible expression of being owned by their dominant. It (usually) signifies mutual commitment and having achieved a level of submission within a relationship that the dominant wants to recognise.
Reading Time: 3 minutes With only a few exceptions every person who has been part of my D/s journey has been a fan of Leonard Cohen. Perhaps that’s because beyond the lyrical and romantic poetry, the understanding of the human condition, there’s more than a hint he had some BDSM leanings. Live versions of I’m Your Man usually included “I’ll wear a… Read More »
Reading Time: 7 minutes Content Notice: “As with all my pieces, I write from personal experience not make believe fantasy. Please exercise care. No detailed trauma. References to ‘scat play’ and clinical PTSD lists” The Path To Enlightenment Triggers can be both positive and negative. I know this may sound counter-intuitive, but bear with me. To understand what a TRUE trigger… Read More »
Reading Time: 3 minutes Content Notice: No flesh on display There’s a dividing line in my relationship with the camera. Until very recently, I didn’t have one. I aggressively avoided being in any picture. The only pictures of me being for a passport and very reluctantly, ID for work (though I did pass off a picture of Father Jack as ID for an… Read More »
