**I originally sent this to a publication last weekend, but it was rejected. I get a lot rejections here. To quote Halsey in “Lucky”,

Truth is, I’m not suited for it.

I’m not suited for sharing with the collective, it is clear at this time. I’ve decided to take a break from publishing for a while and focus on creating content just for myself. So for all my 40-something followers — hope you enjoy. You’ll be the only ones seeing my work for a while.

This song inspired a spark inside of me to make a collage out of stills from the music video, movies, songs, etc. I’ve started a collage inspired by this song. I’ll share once I’ve completed the project 🙃

My house is a mess.

A total disaster, I’m embarrassed to admit.

I’m supposed to start a professional skills course on Coursera by the 28th or I get “unenrolled”.

Writing poems since before I knew what poetry meant. Maybe, that's why I never kept a single one. Not until my heart broke open did I start keeping my words.
