Intro:
This blog is to share not only my creative endeavors but the inspirations I come across. I am a photography major but I dabble in poetry, painting, jewelry making and recently I am trying to teach myself how to play the Djembe (african drum). So please enjoy and feel free to aid my creative process with your own insights (and bare with me as i stumble my way through figuring out how to run my own blog).
Poetry Mondays:

into a comforting bed of clouds
that enveloped my mind
numbing the pain
till
I rained to earth
on my hands
to take hold of new beginnings
to be washed clean
to start again
Explanation:
Today was the day i decided enough was too much. I've been meaning to start this blog for far too long. However a part of me was afraid of my intentions. I don't want this blog for superficial attention, this blog is not a cry for help or even for love. This blog is to share my creativity and possibly foster imaginative conversations or at least spark a creative thought in others.
I have now dedicated part of my mondays to "Poetry Mondays". I used to write poetry day and night years back but I became happier and it took a long time for me to find my happy voice. I have since dedicated myself to other forms of art which convey my happiness but my written voice was always a wounded child. I think now I've become comfortable with my happiness and am ready to embrace it. I can't promise you that my Poetry will be brilliant, or even interesting but it will be original and it will be inspired by the world around me.
Connecting myself to me:
Operator can you please connect me?
to myself?
Seem to be having communication issues
tried calling last week to inform myself
I shouldn't do what I did
must have had the digits wrong
never picked up
Operator do you think you could connect me?
to myself?
maybe myself put I on hold

never said a word
probably too busy to talk to me
Operator do you think I'm ignoring me?

Just trying to get ahold of myself
