Perfectionism is the voice of the oppressor.
-- Anne Lamott
So, in an effort to not be oppressed, I am easing up on my poem-a-day self-imposed structure. Let's call it, a poem (or two, or three) a week.
This week, I'm taking (another) break. I've got to go gather some inspiration.

About This Blog
And such as it is to be of these, more or less, I am
And of these one and all I weave the song of myself.
-- Song of Myself, Walt Whitman ** My goal: to read one poem a day, and record my impressions/thoughts about them here in this blog.
Why? To recultivate an appreciation of poety, and to bring more joy and beauty into my life. Poetry touches something deep within me, something that doesn't get much voice in my busy everyday life. This is an attempt to reach out to that place, and weave my own tapestry so that the outside matches the inside more closely.
