    • I hope I never have to rely on AI to write for me. Sometimes I’ll use a proofreader to correct spelling and punctuation but that’s it. The human element is what makes poetry real.

    Epiphany

    The self defeating logic of anxiety is to make me believe the only way to keep myself safe is for me to never feel self. How absurd, how astonishing, That this fierce storm is only a thought. A ghost I create and...

    • Anxiety is such a beast. Like the snake trying to swallow its own tail. Very solid piece here

    • Our minds can take us on a wild ride and it’s out decision to do so. The unknown will often intrude and fall on us like rain. It’s the not knowing of something and fearing the outcome that gets us.

    • Oothat SOB can be a soul snatcher!.
      I know and feel you deeply, sigh. ❤️
