Photo by ROMAN ODINTSOV on Pexels.com I wrote a poem while traveling across the states. I'm in Arizona now and once I can figure out how to post these photos I will update on my travels.

I'm sorry, but your brain has stopped functioning.Photo by Petr Ganaj on Pexels.com I'm going to write some poetry. Kay? I mean, one day. I'll write poetry again. Grace told me to write more. Like this, "write more." Or, it was more like this, "WRITE MORE!!!" I hope that's what she wanted. I get flummoxed … Continue reading Another Rando Post – Writing Addiction & Such

Greatest Poem of the World

May 7, 2021 ~ @valsisms ~ Leave a comment

I wanted to write a title that evoked narcissism. Am I a narcissist? Do you ever wake up and wonder that about yourself? I mean, you are always thinking about yourself, right? Don't you think about yourself all the time? I read a book once (a few times, it's a good book), The Untethered Soul, … Continue reading Greatest Poem of the World

Some New Lyrics, or a Poem?

April 26, 2021 ~ @valsisms ~ Leave a comment

When I write lyrics or poetry it does depend a lot on the music I've written. Sometimes the lyrics come, and I make them fit into the music and figure out hooks and such as I write. But sometimes the music writes the lyrics. Since I haven't been able to get to my guitar, I … Continue reading Some New Lyrics, or a Poem?

Is It Friday? A Poem and Good Music

April 17, 2021 ~ @valsisms ~ Leave a comment

This week went by like a gust of wind. I honestly had to look at a calendar to remember what day. Now, that could be my problematic and deteriorating brain. I am about to turn 60. But I had a few poems I've been adding to my Intermission Poetry collection. Grace has been unfortunately, very … Continue reading Is It Friday? A Poem and Good Music

A Long Poem – The Solitary Knock on the Door

April 2, 2021 ~ @valsisms ~ Leave a comment

This is a long form poem (735 words). I was trying to make it in an Edgar Allan Poe'esque type style. This came to me because recently I've been getting the smell of smoke in my apartment while I'm alone writing. There have also been odd knocks, winds howling through our apartment corridor, squeaks and … Continue reading A Long Poem – The Solitary Knock on the Door

A Poem – In God’s Merciless Design

March 18, 2021 ~ @valsisms ~ Leave a comment

I started to write this poem maybe more than a few weeks ago. I wanted to keep the timing even in it's unevenness? Does that make sense? It was also possibly a rap song. Haha If you can guess what it's regarding then major kudos to you. I wrote it with so, so many in … Continue reading A Poem – In God’s Merciless Design

I'm constantly adding another poem and once I've added enough I'm going to try and publish, Intermission Poetry: Thoughts While Taking a Break. What do you all think of the title?
