i know you are something
My first poem in like two years! Inspired by a brief "rendezvous" I had with someone I didn't expect at all to connect with. Not my best, not my favorite, but happy to be writing a little again.

I wrote this poem a few months ago about feeling kind of like you have to put facades on constantly. It's not my favorite, by any means. But I'm okay with it. Hope you're staying safe out there.

I have returned for my once-a-year poem. I wrote this at 3 AM a few weeks ago. Stole the pretty run-of-the-mill title from The National, and there's a nod to Leonard Cohen in here somewhere.

This Is How It Is Now reviews
The latest in this ongoing series I have going on - I think this is the angriest piece. That sort of weird helpless grief that encompasses you when you feel like you will never get closure on an event or get a chance to clear the air. And what you really wish you could express somehow.
