My life sucks. Over the past 2 months, this is the story of my life in snippets: I lost my best friend. I have been alone with my feelings. I haven't written a poem. Poems help me purge my feelings. So, my feelings are eating my insides, like a deadly parasite. I kicked my husband out a half hour ago. My house flooded from last week's storm (yes, east coast girl here). Although I don't have another job and I am a 10+ year educated professional who was always be... Read More
