this collection is fully my own.
most pieces should be associated with a date of origin.
they may have been edited since that date.
keep in mind that these pieces are edited for desktop viewing. please switch from mobile view on poems with long, unbroken lines or strange formatting. if there is a piece that reads strangely or doesn’t make sense, make sure to switch to desktop view. if it still doesn’t make any sense, thanks for visiting my site
none of the writings on this blog represent my or anyone else’s personal views.
always remember that art is the contact between the reader and the word. the author is as relevant as the cultural affectations of the environment the piece was written in: not at all to some and deeply so to others. Don’t ever let the truth behind any media, or someone else’s favorite lens of analysis, suppress your own personal experience with it.
Thank you to everyone in my life that has told me to keep writing. I have.
