So the purpose of this blog is to be a space to practice creativity. I am currently using it as a place to record a single, unedited poem for each day in 2019. While I attempt to write everyday, I may not actually post daily. Instead, I will post poems as they are completed, but one for everyday of the year. Not sure I can make it, but we'll see. It's fun to try regardless :)

...Get up on the table after I just said no.
...Make my feet hot at night.
...Stink up the basement.
...Be insistent.
...Sit on the computer.
...Steal the LEGO head.
...Don't let the house fly out of your sight.
...Scratch the hell out of my arm when all I want to do is love you.
