Welcome

Hello, and welcome to my daily poetry blog. The following poems are improvised based on my day, general reflections, or by just allowing my mind to cruise in neutral without a filter. I have been working on this for something around two years now and have amassed a lot of words. You can either go through them page by page, or check out the "Hall of Better Poems" option in the right column. Please feel free to comment on what you like or dislike, and also subscribe below if you like this sort of thing. Thanks!

(typically I will write down my ideas on paper throughout the day and I may not get in front of a computer to transfer it. So I then dump a few days worth of poems at once.)

hand crafted

pointless pitiless pressing
leaning inward
crushing

walls without borders
endless restrictive building
blocking breath from beyond breadth

these vestigial actions
unable to avoid them
generally accepted as false but yet
we may not be rid of them

dowsing for truth
divining for daylight
praying for help

someone is reaching to you
but not close enough
despite what seems like genuine interest
the mark of humanity is the shift of eyes
toward the movement
out of focus

the blood has dried
skin has forged anew
scars mark the struggle
of living a life worth led

the ground is ready for you
it will always accept you as you are
and how you will be on that day
when the promised union is consummated
