 TO IMAGINATION 

In one of her poems, Bronte wanted to convey that imagination is separate but also a part of ourselves. I liked this poem the most as I try to decipher what I really want in life. How about you? What would you say to your own imagination?

This time without boundaries, without a set date to end anything.

Are you ready? 

Coming this October 2022. 

The start of ending your nights with some soul.

Poetry Readings are back.

Welcome (back) to Mars. 

5/5. This was the last poem I posted last year. Honestly, there's so much more that needs to be done. I wonder if I can do it all. I think I am too much into the business of starting and pausing, I wonder if I'll ever be consistent enough (not for others, but for me). Is that how serendipity starts? 

Feel free to check out my YouTube channel to hear the poems first, but I'll be back next month for a new season of poetry readings. 

The fourth poem from last year. Almost there! If you're ready to read the rest ahead of time, feel free to visit my channel in YouTube. That would be the greatest. 

I honestly still don't know what failure is at this point, or if success is easier to define. I have no idea of the processes in between as well. I think there was a point where I didn't bother looking for any of it, and then a time when I looked to far and swallowed myself in the process.
