I've wanted to start this community for a while. I feel a lack of original writing on Lemmy. Poetry tends to be short form and more accessible to many.

I intend to post my own writings, including some of my most personal stuff; writings not a single soul has seen. I would love to have you all join in, as lurkers, as posters, as poets, as enthusiasts. I look forward to seeing this community grow!

OK this was the last one. Had to post a few for Halloween, sorry for the dump. No other day defines an entire genre so I couldn't let this opportunity go.

I don't wanna spoil this. So I won't say why I like it, but you won't regret reading this.

Some quotes from the book:

  • Humor is almost always anger with its make-up on.
  • The muses are ghosts, and sometimes they come uninvited.
  • I felt lonely and content at the same time. I believe that is a rare kind of happiness.
  • I see things, that's all. Write enough stories and every shadow on the floor looks like a footprint; every line in the dirt like a secret message.
  • A person can go along quite awhile if they get a good day every once and again

Its beautifully written.

Tried reading by color, in every possible order, bottom to top, top to bottom. Everything. Nothing makes sense
