Baby bird
My word
Soft as silk
But that tiny beak can peck
Eyes Wide
My pride
You step out
Away from the nest
Each peep
A leap
To grow up
And fly the coop

On Winning and Losing
Recently, the pleasant surprise of placement on the Vocal Bonus Leaderboard sent me down a rabbit hole. Now, rabbit holes are a pretty common place for me to spend time, but I don't always feel the call to write about them. To be honest, the thought of sharing some of them mortifies me.
