I have written four new pieces in the past month. I'm happy about the place where my writing is at, I hope for the words to feel the same as they once did. I know that this will never be, and the ability to write again, and write something that I can feel growing with every edi gives me new found joy and inspiration. I will soon be posting other things from this summer once I feel that they are truthful to me and I feel comfortable with what I have written.
I have had the pleasure of performing and attending some open mics this summer. I'm thinking about joining [competing with] the Piedmont team [ Greensboro poetry slam team]. I received some advice from that coach and not its up to me to make the decision and get my priorities in place. The words were truly an inspiration for me. Many of the poems I hear in the city is very metaphoric. I loved hearing pieces from people in Greensboro and North Carolina because I was able to listen to their story as if they were having a simple conversation with me but yet so complex and beautiful.
eel free to check in on my blog every week; if I don't post my own work there may be things that have inspired me or make me happy that I post on here.
