Poetry hub page :o

    This is a hub page for all of the poems and poem series I've written. They are currently organized by some combination of when I wrote them / what series they are a part of.


* For the purposes of this taxonomy, "poetry" refers to stuff i say is poetry; mostly that ends up being non-prosaic stuff, but i think this is essentially an asinine delineation, so i haven't held myself to it as a standard



>> ||| salvage poetry project |||

poems written using assigned readings from one of my classes in grad school. the class was traumatic and this project aimed to reconstitute my pain into something else. the project also featured an accompanying video series to present the poems aurally and, later, visually.


>> ==[poems from Summer 2023]==

poems I wrote as part of my weekly correspondances. I wanted to get back into poetry, so I tried to write around one poem a week, experimenting with different styles throughout.


>> ==[piecemeal poems from Spring 2024]==

poems I wrote in the classroom during my final semester of undergrad.


>> "I want friends I want love I want company" poem series

poems I wrote while trying to work through my feelings about my desire for community and my inability to act on said desire.


>> "bleeding limb" poem series

poems about bleeding limbs (a metaphor i've been caught on for some time now)


>> misc. poemz

poems without a(nother) filing cabinet.


::about poetry::

Most of the poems I've written over the past couple years. I like poetry as a medium because it lets me push language to its breaking point and is the easiest medium for me to translate some of my more intense feelings into something semi-legible. It also lets me frame my paranoid, repulsive, etc. thought patterns as something closer to beauty.
