Wow. Just… uh… wow… 😯😭

That poem was amazing. Astoundingly simple in execution and deep in concept. My favorite line was ‘baptize themselves into the church of publication’. This right here… this is my favorite kind of poetry, the kind that makes me tear up because it touched a place in my heart I didn’t know could be touched and revealed things I’d never thought about.

On another note, I tried tankas! The first was for fun as an introduction, the second was a little more thoughtful.

Tankas are something

I have never done before

I see them as doors

A whole new way of sharing

Tiny thoughts with this big world

 

 

 

My thoughts, lingering,

Brush their hands over my heart.

‘Are you here?’ they ask.

’Are you paying attention?’

Yes. I smile. I am still here.
