A look at poetry by Joseph Bottum and Sally Thomas
I am a published poet who has won and been runner-up in poetry competitions. For several years I took a break, but now I'm back / loving the freedom of Substack. I publish weekly poems. Subscribe for free / Freedom is poetry.
Once upon a time, I discovered I had many voices in my head and I needed a place to put themโthen Substack came along. "To suggest is to create, to name is to destroy." โStรฉphane Mallarmรฉ
Words of my ownโmostly poetry. Inspiration from elsewhereโmostly othersโ words. All to be shared with gratitude.
