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.)

Recompense

There will never be an end to this.
A series of begun projects with no intended destination.
A string being pulled at for the passage of time,
No real point to it's unwinding.
I see now that this has all been staged.
I see now that the observation lacks an endgame.
But still the scrutinizing masses wait.
"He is sure to slip back down there soon."
"It is just a matter of time,
till all this plot and waiting is justified."
I am swirling in tithe wake of unrecognized intentions of my own awakening.
I suppose I knew what I was signing onto.
But a person changes.
An organism grows.
My 20 year old self was not accountable for my 10 year old desires.
Nor should a life at 30 be the remnant of decisions made in err.
So many changes past.
