Where sirens sing in
aquamarine tidal crowns,
hearts of fire drown.

This short haiku was inspired by my longer, free form poem, Aquamarine:
I write a lot about having a conflicted spirit of both blue and red - of equal parts fire and water. If you follow me, you'll see this theme pop up a lot. While I am the most at home in blue, I've always strived and dreamed of being more permanently red. The fire exists within me, and it does shine through at times. Once I am blue, I always strive to be Red again. 💃🏽✨

A Pantoum
There are more formal interpretations of how to write a pantoum, but I’ve decided to try this one, mainly because it’s easier. Write 8 lines of poetry Then put them together using this basic structure: Lines 1, 2, 3, 4, Line 2, 5, 4, 6, Lines 5, 7, 6, 8, Lines 7, 3, 8, 1 Tree Langdon
