So I took Intro to Poetry Writing this semester. Mostly, it was because I've never really been able to just sit down and read it without losing interest, and I always felt like I was missing out. Well, it definitely achieved that goal, and turned me on to something I never would have guessed could be so enjoyable. I cranked out two that I don't really think are that bad in less than an hour tonight.. It seems that
tired + stressed + caffeine + computer = creativity
just like when I'm writing papers.

I'm think about throwing a few up here, just to see what anyone says, assuming anyone says anything at all. I have it on good authority that putting yourself out there is a Good Thing, and that critiques and criticisms are helpful and promote Personal Growth. I have to admit, I'm not really afraid of outright criticism - it's the things I imagine are left unsaid that really bother me, and that's probably (probably..) mostly all in my head.

That, and posting a bunch of amateur crap about Joan of Arc, the Mona Lisa, and my grandmother's cancer on here seems... silly.

I'll think about it.
