The Mission

From my own experience, writing poetry has helped me to overcome and understand many things about life and myself. This blog will be an open journal for all who care to read it. You are also welcome to participate in any free writing activities as well as post your poems for review or just to share.

Poem in process

some things
get better with age
like wine and wisdom-
your myopic views on life
suddenly spread themselves wide
making room for historical and social contexts;
a universal perspective
and you see
for the first time
the woman you have become
walking forward
but every stop weighs a ton
and your list of woes
and regrets
shortcomings
parade behind you a mile long...(unfinished)
