Self-help Poetry
"Self-help poetry" finds me in the most vulnerable period of my life. I craft a humorous verse and hurriedly send it to a woman in San Francisco, hoping for an invested response. She remains distant, never extending an invitation to her flat, despite my frequent forays to the Whole Foods located beneath her apartment. I then shift my focus to crafting three episodes of "Healing Fiction", titled "writings > "Stop Hacking and Start Feeling"". There I wield evocative language to convey ideas important to me – an experiment that proves both arduous and rewarding, before I compose four additional poems that might have encapsulated the bittersweet cadence of lockdown's conclusion and the abandoned American dream.
