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 :)

something worth fighting past,
some place to plant a flag, so that
today, you and I, our home and
family, are so obvious as to be
the only answer to the only hard
question I was afraid to ask myself.
