beat 136 - swished

"When I was young, I learned how a heart beats. The valves close and when they open again everything comes rushing through with a swish. My heart functions like that. When the valve opens, my emotions come rushing through. Sometimes my heart is a reckless gatekeeper, but it's the only one I've got and it has taught me the beauty of jumping in at the swish. Close, open, swish."


-Michele Vakiener, New York City
