‘a cross in poetry, born from the same story’

intertwined, interlaced, interconnected

When delusion becomes reality...

'come along, the water's great, jump in, we're all mad here' - Taylor Swift on Jimmy Fallon (2021)

You could’ve warned us that the risk is drowning though.

Asking for a friend how many tortured poets does your department roughly have, Taylor?

...that’s just how it works. that’s how you get the girl. imgonnagetHERback.

also i really like the stuff jack and taylor were doing with the synths and other production bits on midnights. leaning into vocal effects on midnight rain and dear reader, echoey drums on anti-hero like the monster on the hill is lurching towards you through a big empty space, the way bejeweled literally sounds like it's glinting and sparkling, the kind of fuzzy electronic sounds behind labyrinth, the background vocal of her yelling 'i'm so in love!' in paris, the ominous synth throbbing behind maroon that makes you feel like you're there with her looking across the city skyline in the hour before dawn

the fact that she’s letting the whole crowd get pumped up for the show with THIS song will never not be funny to me.

like never 😂

(but who’s @pulia anyway 🙄)

Her Supreme Muse... Karlie Kloss! 🥰

I'm sorry if you've seen this before, but I'm incredibly shocked that I'm only seeing this now. 😮

Oh! Thanks, @pulia for showing me how insane and loud Taylor is about being in love and inspired by her love story with KK. 🥰

I'm really shocked right now. I think this broke me. 😂🙈

ME! baby kaylor 😂 feels like light years ago

i kinda forgot about this @milelarissa-blog

The beginning of the end

before I realised that this sinkhole meant

never knowing peace again 🫠🫠🫠

I’m only halfway through your blog (binge reading hahahaha) but wanted to take a break to send you positive vibes! Loving it. This is actually one of the saddest stories ever but the way you walk us through it (I’m laughing while crying or vice versa half of the time) gives them the sunshine they deserve.

I feel like a freak saying this about two people I’ve never met but I think that we’ve seen enough of them over the years (being a public figure, what a joy) to know that these two deserve the world..

And I figured, if haters gonna hate, lovers gonna love. So hell yeah KAYLOR <3 - still processing the narrative btw (especially the kids part is not quite entering my brain - but hey if it’s true, I’m all for it). 

And I get you Taylor, I would also write a thousand songs about Karlie - what a muse. 

let’s goooooo

okay so in my life everything kind of feels accidental

no clue why i opened this playlist today - doesn’t really matter

i just stumble from one situation into the next 🫠

not a mastermind like @daisyswift3

but eddy boy - you crushed my soul with this mv!

(gave me brain freeze first by letting ron weasly play you 😅)

hop the fence - join the club

step into the daylight

or not

but we got you

no fame = less restricted humanity

it’s a ‘b’ not an ‘h’

of course you did taylor 🧡💙

if we let the sad kids be sad

so that they can make music for the sad kids

then we’ll never brake the cycle

comfort does not equal happiness

Ok I could be completely wrong and seeing patterns that aren’t there (it wouldn’t be the first time) but I think Ed Sheeran and Sabrina Carpenter might come out tomorrow. I think they’re the next dominoes to cascade or FALL after Shawn Mendes. Let me explain

I think this all ties into the election too hence all the red, white, and blue and 4th of July easter eggs lately 🇺🇸 (Gregory’s Before the Sun mentions the 4th of July).

The Story/Secret of Us

So I believe I may have just solved a major piece of the puzzle and finally figured out WHY the tortured poets have been sending us these anonymous messages to help us solve it. I think this entire rabbit hole is a gift to us true fans which is why we got all of those cryptic present 🎁 anon messages. Alllll of these songs are dedicated to us (except for So High School and I will explain why I think this in more detail later). THIS is The Story or Secret of Us. The "secret" is this rabbit hole of connections and this secret language or code of symbols and metaphors we've all learned how to speak (sunshine/daylight/gold/yellow = Karlie/being out of the closet/queer love/happiness, 3 = Speak Now, orange = karma, etc). The "us" is the tortured poets and us true fans who share this secret language.

Another important part of understanding this puzzle is that some of these songs are time sensitive 🕰️ and like a prophecy (The Prophecy) waiting to be fulfilled. So after a certain point, some songs can no longer be applied bc that "scene" in the movie has already passed (If This Was A Movie). They want us to essentially play our part in the story they've written. Right now we are playing the part of Paul Revere or Cassandra warning swifties of what's coming (likely on Sept 28). And we're also acting as Taylor's wings/angels catching her when she falls off her pedestal (see this post). They want us to think of these moments when we listen to these songs bc they want them to be personally relatable bc that's part of our gift. I think this is what Taylor meant when she said

"Let me tell you my secret little dream for this evening. These are songs that I have written about my life or things I've felt at one point in time, whether I was a teenager, in my 20s, or a couple yrs ago. But after tonight when you hear these songs out and about in the world, my dream is that you're gonna think about tonight and the memories we made here together" (x)

and what present anon meant when they said

"Reach those lanterns a little bit higher. For you shall receive a metaphor so dire" (x).

"Then the actors (us true fans and the tortured poets) were hitting their marks and the slow dance was alight with the sparks and the tears fell in synchronicity with the score" // "It's a normal thing to fall in love with movie stars when the lights are low and red at all their favorite bars. And the story you want is the story you get. Are you special or was this all scripted in his head?...Don't worry, I know I'll see you again. Uh-huh, you'll make me cry when it comes to an end. You were all that we hoped (The Prophecy), but I can't recommend getting close, I should've known, but I'll see you again" (x). The tortured poets have invited us to "dance" with them by being a part of this movie. If we accept this invitation, then we essentially become the muse of these songs.

I think Gracie playing In Between as a surprise song on 9/19 was an easter egg for Lizzy’s song Pushing It Down and Praying that was released 9/20. I think the mv for this song is the visual representation of the 🫚 message about the audience member (us true fans) becoming a part of the magic show and also the teenage love triangle in folklore. In this story, we are playing the character Wendy/Betty while the tortured poets play the character Peter/James. Swifties or the fans who don’t see this metaphorical story are Augusta/Augustine, the girl that James cheats on Betty with in august. So even though the teenage love triangle is technically fictional, there are seeds of truth in it. This is what Taylor was trying to explain during the eras tour betty speeches when she said she created these fictional characters and she was acting as the narrator of their story (x). Role Model, who stars in the Pushing It Down and Praying mv, is also the opening act for Gracie's TSOU tour which is another connection.

And to add even more evidence to this theory, the teenage love triangle also makes an appearance in Gracie’s discography. Gracie has a song called Augusta on TIWIFL which just so happens to be the name of one of the characters in the love triangle. It is also the name of a town in Maine which is where Gracie’s family is from. There are 3 songs in total on TIWIFL that are named after towns in Maine—Camden, Augusta, and Rockland. If you put the first letters of these songs together, they spell out “CAR.” “Standing in your CARdigan, kissing in my CAR again,” “And when I felt like I was an old CARdigan under someone’s bed, you put me on and said I was your favorite," 2:46 in betty ("She said 'James, get in, let's drive'") corresponding with 2:46 in august ("Remember when I pulled up and said get in the CAR").

In “Camden,” Gracie struggles with intrusive thoughts that are continuously haunting her. She reveals multiple insecurities she feels regard

august, betty, cardigan (the 3 sides or perspectives of the love triangle) are “ABC” bc the alphabet or capital letters are one of the major keys to solving this puzzle. As I mentioned in this post, I think Audrey has been helping to plant easter eggs. She posted Capital Letters by Hailee Steinfeld on her insta 3 times which is quite interesting and she also included this song in her Summa playlist.

What makes this even more suspicious is that she specifically chose timestamps in the songs (1:11 and 1:23) that have these lyrics ⬇️ and she posted the 1:11 timestamp TWICE which indicates that she really wanted to emphasize it. "God I'm jumping in the deep end, it's more fun to swim in. Heard the risk is drowning but I'm gonna take it."

Another thing that I think ties in with all of this is the Stephen Colbert interview. In this post below, I explain why I think the pizza on the mood board represents PR/bearding/showmanship/magic. I also explain how the letters that spell out Stephen's name are a huge clue and are related to the Peter Pan metaphor that is a through line in both Gracie's and Taylor's music. This is another example of "capital letters" or the alphabet being the key to solving the puzzle.

So several gaylors have been talking abt the Stephen Colbert interview Taylor did on April 13, 2021 and I believe I may have figured out how

Going back to what I said in the first paragraph, this entire rabbit hole of cross-referenceable songs is dedicated to us except for the "pizza" So High School which is the one song she dedicated to 🏈 This is why Taylor's mood board had one slice of pizza while every other picture was of Stephen.
