A little vlog of our time spent chasing the dregs of summer across The Adriatic Sea in a somewhat desperate attempt to be *inspired*.
I had just as much fun editing this as I did living it. I hope you enjoy.
Love always,
Lady Dakota

“On Sun Swallowing is a sweet and bloody collection of poetry and prose, dancing in the spaces between skinned knees and red wine, satin and switchblades, rosaries and Dionysian ecstasy. Her writings are haunted by the ghosts of girlhood, god/s, lovers and the landscape of childhood, but Warren is unflinching - she haunts her ghosts in return, with sharp lyricism and cutthroat vulnerability.
On Sun Swallowing explores shadowy emotion, at times in a whisper, at times in a scream. Think: cheap cigarettes, even cheaper wine, and an oath to reach hell by midnight and be home in time for work in the morning.”

I love how pure and magical Dakota is - I imagine she's the kind of person not everyone understands because she lives in such a way that isn't encouraged in today's fast-paced society. She searches for the magic in life, cultivates living at a peaceful stride, but also embraces the uncertainty. I want to live like Dakota - because the thought of living like every day is a moment to cherish makes living far more enticing

While I agree there are people who most people don't understand I don't like that phrasing so much bc it reads so much like "not like other people" and I've met a lot of people who exude this sort of vibe of "I'm different = I'm special" and I know it comes from growing up feeling different and having to learn to love themselves despite feeling alienated, but this can easily slip into a form of inferiority complex where you elevate yourself above others, and I think everyone is special in their own way. Sorry for the long essay. I don't even know if you meant it that way (I'm sure you didn't) but it's a slippery slope. Plus it suggests other people aren't looking for magic in life in their own way that I'm sure you may not understand, either. Just general love and understanding is what I promote. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk 😅

oh my god the love i have for this artwork of a video is inexpressible. it's one of the rare moments that capture the feeling of wine running through veins, the fleeting spectre of youth and pure unbridled divinity. this duo's chemistry is to die for, the godly music, and the cinematography is Delight in distilled form. I’m only mid-way through and already in tears because it is actual fking perfection from start to finish. coming from a little writer vulnerable to beauty’s unexpected attacks, thank you for existing lady Dakota. your novel isn’t even published, yet it already feels infused by magic and so much soul.
