Ever wish you could turn back time, maybe just for a bit, to see a different world? Well I’ve felt that way recently! Gods it’s been so cool listening to podcasts and learning about the planet before us humans showed up on it! That curiosity led to the creation of this surprisingly reflective piece.

This is no joke, the best poem that I have written in a very long time. Words cannot express how proud I feel of myself. I read this at a wedding recently and was surprised at how well I said every word, despite having not read my poetry in front of a wide audience in a long time. To whoever ends up reading this once it is posted, thanks for taking the time to do so and for, well…. for just being your unique wonderful self!

Probably the most experimental poem that I’ve written in a long while. If I hadn’t forgotten about it, it might have become a series of poems, as is probably implied by the title. That series still remains a possibility. Anyways, I always enjoy these kinds of poems, when I can just write whatever comes to mind, even if I end up putting down non-words sometimes. But let’s let the poem speak for itself, I’ve done enough chatting.

Poem that I wrote on August 12th 2019. Feels very stream of consciousness, I’ve done plenty of them before. However, this one served as a bit more of a return to form after a long break from writing poetry outside of Ramblings. Enjoy!

Everybody you meet deserves a bit of kindness and a smile and to be treated warmly. I try to live by that mentality. So this poem is meant to be a pick me up, for everyone who is going through difficult times and has a low opinion of themselves. I myself have low self-esteem, so I can relate. Keep on carrying on everyone!

At the end of last year I walked down to the tennis courts behind my former middle school, a nostalgic old haunt of sorts. I sat down against a tree and handwrote this poem in my journal. Only after I returned home did I put it in a Google Docs. It’s very serene and might carry your mind away.

One of the poems I read at Hope’s Alive this year! A rant on how many interesting historical characters are lost and forgotten because of those who are more famous. This one was created because of my own interest in weird history! This one strikes a balence between lighthearted comedy and more serious contemplation. It’s food for thought! So eat up!

One of the three poems I read at Hope’s Alive this year and the first one in a while to become one of my favorites! It captures so much of me as a person. Heavily focused on mythology and literature.
