Hi everybody.
Just a quick post to let you all know I'm taking tonight off. My brain won't perform and my heart's not in it. I started working on something that sounded more like a rap than a poem, so I deleted it. Then, I tried to start over and my mind went blank. Well not exactly blank. Just all over other things.
For example: Before my second attempt at writing a poem, I responded to an email from the Director of the Adult Education program for our school district confirming that I will be teaching a class on creative writing this fall. Instead of thinking about poetry, my mind is very much on what my syllabus will look like, and what writing exercises I will give my students.
Anyway, I hope you're all having a great week so far and that you have a good night.
Be good to each other.
