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.

this was awful to read in the best possible way. i cant say ive done anything quite as intense but i know those conflicted feelings and urges all too well. i hope everything is okay, or that things are getting easier

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 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 love the format of a bullet list, it's almost like there is no need to speak the connecting tissue out loud because it is so clear in its essence. lovely poem as always!

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!

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!
@ryomakesthings thank you! i cant claim one good night fixed me lol but i think it refreshed me/put me on the right track. hoping things look up from here :]
god that last line hits hard, and the yearning for the comfort of the past is so relatable. love this entry.
