If there’s one section on my site that’s easy to describe, it’s this one. This is poetry. These are poems.
I’ve been writing poetry for years, but I quickly become dissatisfied with my work. These are all fairly recent poems, and ones I’m still mostly pleased with. The more recent ones often have some commentary about how I felt about them when I wrote them or what inspired them.
