im like, 'im not even a real writer. when the last time i wrote some? two years ago, five? i wrote in high school and thats it' and then i go and write 1000 words in an hour

sometimes ill write poetry and think "wait this reference is so vague and only makes sense to me with my own lived experiences... i should change it so more people understand" and then i think What The Fuck Am I Talking About and i make it vaguer. what am i? a brand? am i trying to appeal to general audiences or write about autism through a furry lense?

and sometimes ill use a word and think "is this word appropiate for the context or should i reel it back?" and then i know i shouldnt reel it back

every word has thought put into it, as is the nature of poetry . lines like "scorn of groomed sensibilities", "reel it down the well when we both arent looking" and "roughly the size of [HORNED MAMMAL]" are all intentional choices that i revised over and over

every poem i write i like more than the last one. the first one linked is my current favourite as it is my most recent. its technically titled Jim
