RE: Blind Hands [Original poem featuring the art of @leoplaw]
Thank you! I have found that writing poetry about love can quickly descend into the cliche if you're not careful! But I still find some good pieces in my old stuff occasionally. Thank you for coming to check out my poetry! Workshopping is probably one of my favorite things to do with writing- it's so fun to talk about the process with other people who are also interested in improving their craft!
I surely have seen plenty of hackneyed cliche writing, but I still find that being in love, and even the memory of being in love, can inspire and stimulate one to excellence.
So can contests... ;)
Through a series of "coincidental" encounters, I stumbled my way into The Writers' Block, and have been so delighted by the kind interaction of members who have welcomed me so warmly and have patiently interacted with my first submission there.
I'm working on an entry for @jrhughes Fictioneers Man vs. Society contest at the moment. But you'll probably see more love poems show up as well from time to time... ;)
So nice to start to get to know you! :D
