trying to gently rouse my site out of hiatus by doing the 6/10 prompt! 6/11 was my birthday so I couldnt help but write about how I've felt in the time surrounding it (TW discussion of depression + suicide) https://chimeramanticore.neocities.org/muse

first of all, thank you for your vulnerability - such a sweet and thoughtful piece! I especially like the line about making childhood memories as an adult, and 'I felt my youth'. beautiful work, hope you're okay!

God, this made me cry. thank you for sharing with us, it's a beautiful, bittersweet piece. I relate to those inner contradictions and struggling with what they have to say about our essence. I hope you're alright!

thank you ryo, i'm okay! i write this kind of thing to exorcise it from my mind. i'm sorry it made you cry - i hope you're okay too! and thank you again. it was my dad's birthday on monday, and i wrote him a poem where i told him i love him without using those words. so he knows, at least.

I love how precise and visceral the descriptions of june 11th are, they make the poem feel very much live. I also adore june 17th, there is something almost brutal in how short it is and how much it leaves open to the viewer. great job!

I like how despite the poems being wildly different in format and content, they still communicate a very consistent and visceral artistic voice. love the Perpetual Grilled Cheese one!

very powerful imagery, I really like the concept of systemhood as this river with different currents that are interconnected yet distinct from each other (that is if I read it correctly, apologies if not)!

I really like the recurring theme of the waves, claiming everything for themselves regardless of their history. it's a very gentle poem, I like it a lot!

I really like the format, I think it really gets across this sort of dichotomy of hope and despair finding their synthesis in the compromise of existence. It's quite powerful in its simplicity, I really like it!

I like how raw and 'unclean' the feeling you're communicating is, kind of like those thoughts that we find too ugly or shameful to share despite being very common and human. I really like the format too, and the contrast created by the differing lengths of the two paragraphs!
