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.)

Crippling Confusion

I want to know the truth.
I do.
I can promise you that at least if nothing else.
My desire is strong,
and so too the will.
So here I stand.
Starring up at this monumental collection.
A diverse array of dispersed opinionated facts.
More than three-thousand years it stretches back.
Upward these slopes contain so much that is unknown,
So much that is unknowable.
"Where to start?"
Seems such a tedious thing to entertain.
Eyes strain to see some kind and distant end,
A keen point to all the work,
A destination that validates my claim at learning.
I fear no such precipice exists,
Only to be exhausted in the reaching upward.
What kind of goal is this?
