My Writing Philosophy:

Poetry is a writing form that belongs to the people as it lends itself to be the writing form that is most willing to break the rules of grammar and language. Poetry is an art form that uses language, one of the most limiting art mediums, to convey beauty beyond our human comprehension.

People tell me poetry is hard, but I think poetry is the one genre that allows itself to bend over backward for you if you sit with it long enough.

Have you ever made enough song out of words that used to cut you?

Poetry belongs to the people who need it most. An abstraction of the very unsayable things we dare to bravely write.

Do not fear poetry. Fear the voices that have led you to believe your silence is more palatable
