a poem as a place
that I can situate myself in
somewhere between abstraction
and soul, where thoughts and
meanings are created and misused
over and over again.
Thank you for reading my writing! I hope you will return in the future!

What to Expect: Book Reviews and Reflections
I plan on writing up some reviews/reflections on a few of the following books this month. I have yet to choose which ones from this list of what I am currently reading.
Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte
Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
The Feminine Mystique by Betty Friedan
Democracy, Culture and the Voice of Poetry by Robert Pinsky
Three Guineas by Virginia Woolf
Satanic Feminism: Lucifer as the Liberator of Woman in Nineteenth-Century Culture by Per Faxneld
I am really leaning towards a reflection of Wuthering Heights for sure and a review of Democracy, Culture and the Voice of Poetry.

Free Hand #93 (Occupying Space)
I occupy a space
quiet and disconnected
observing the clouds against
the changing colors of the sky
as the sun dips down
into the hills. I reach out
in hopes that there is
another space for me
somewhere else.
Thank you for reading my writing! I hope you will return in the future!
