My Husband Is A Poet
As I sat down to write tonight, I was telling my husband that I needed to write and didn't much feel like it. I was surprised as I have 9 days left of this month. If I am already running out of steam, what will happen to my writing for the next week?

What Are You Passionate About?
Basics of Pantoum: Any length, composed of four-line stanzas in which each stanza's second and fourth lines serve as the next stanza's first and third lines. The last line of a pantoum is often the same as the first. The basic form of the pantoum is a quatrain with an abab rhyme scheme. Each line contains between eight and twelve syllables. (ab) has no immediate logical or narrative connection with the second pair of lines (ab). The pantoum is sung very slowly according to a fixed rhythm. Adapted from Bing or Goggle

I Grew Up with Trauma/Racism
Add agism, and some others. ~~~~ I grew up in a town close to three reservations. My dad died when I was 10 years old and we moved out of the city, and didn’t return to the reservation that my mother grew up in. We were living about 1 hour from her childhood home.
