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.)

The Gift of Screens

All the years of laughter.
All the plot twists and surprise endings.
Every new season.
Each character introduction and passing.
I'd trade it all for some genuine passion.

Every status updated.
Each picture posted.
Every refresh button clicked.
Every clever meme embraced for it's potent brevity.
I would trade all of that for a taste of sincerity.

Every sequel that was worth common name.
All originality how ever few and far between.
Every bit of light captured on film for the future.
I would trade it all,
For a glimpse of physical things in person.
