So much expression - the imagery just popped out in so many lines. I really liked that even though this poem had so much anguish and raw desperation... the one ray of hope ....
"It's a literary family
These poems are children
Born thru a marriage to hardship
And struggle and happiness and love
Cuz, it's not always bad" (i don't know how to use the quote thingie... lol so i just had to use quotation marks)

i so appreciated that it's not always bad. i had myself a deep little sigh right there :) i didn't get to hear the audio - just read it. but could imagine a teeny break in anxiety for the briefest moment.

enjoyed this - and now off to bed for me :)
