^This is me, post-National Poetry Month.
Seriously, all of you guys rock for watching me post first drafts of poems on my Tumblr EVERY SINGLE DAY and not un-following me. It was kind of fun! Some of the poems were awful, I think, and some of them I really kind of like. And I also love the idea that Tumblr is a place where you can go out on a limb and essentially invite people to watch you practice something, to try and fail and try again, and they’ll still like you for it.
I think I’ll probably pull some of the poems off my blog in the near future to revise & submit for publication elsewhere – but before I do that, here’s a list of links to all the poems I wrote this month.
