New Ends

I'm wrapping up my portfolios for the semester. I don't have much more writing to share yet. I'm planning a fiction project that I want to work on this summer. That's all the info I'm going to share on that for now.

Also, if anyone in the Grand Rapids area wants to make music together, or wants to hear me make music, let me know. I've got a song I'm working on.

"When the world is sick, can't no one be well?
But I dreamt we was all beautiful and strong."

I want to share this poem by someone else, though. It's from a book called An Architecture by Chad Sweeney:

5


We searched the cities
in ones--each

for the other, orphans without

memory, the divorced, the
prisoners--we

ate among cars and wires,
in the concrete was

no mother, in halls ten
floors up no

father--and sent each day
our children

into huge buildings

into rows. It's
how we lived.
