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.)

Still Something

The first of all my best intentions forward
climbing to a height beyond your "see"
constantly my stern is pointed shoreward
blinding as I fight against the sea

Perhaps I aught to learn before I follow
research a thing, withholding 'for I step
most needed is the pill I wait to swallow
catching in my throat unlike a breath

waking in the darkness holding steady
furtive is the wick of all my life
paltry is the starkness you hold ready
reluctantly the truth is never rife

before you think the timing be unbroken
a meaning hidden just below the skin
the loudest is the word the lands unspoken
an end is missed if ne'er attempt begin
