Sometimes the people we needed to show us how to grow up, never figured it out for themselves.
It's not easy to step away from those people when they refuse to see that, but it's necessary. 😞

I made a site where you send your poem to a stranger and get real feedback back.
No followers, no likes, no algorithm. Just your poem and someone who actually read it.
Penpal Poets: send your poem to a stranger. They read it properly. They write back.
No social media. No noise. Just the poem.
Political Comment
Really have to shit.
Cannot post at this moment.
Maybe when I'm done.

"26. Chessboard"
From "Hard Graft on the Half Shell" - a sequence in which each poem is grown from a graft - a line from another poet's poem (indicated by a sans serif typeface).

Poets of Bluesky — I built something small.
You send a poem to a random stranger. They read it and write back with honest feedback. No profiles, no metrics. Just the poem.
