Writing poetry was fun. To be fair, half of my poems were things I had previously written, but I really liked them enough that I wanted to put them out there for people to see. The other two I just went off the strength of poetry being able to be about anything. I couldn’t think of anything new to come up with on my own that felt natural, and someone’s favorite poem (one of them at least) was Bruce Banner #3, so that greatly influenced me to make of a stream-of-consciousness, “shower thoughts” collection poem, because I think about things a lot. It didn’t end up capturing my most absurd or philosophical thoughts, but it was how I felt at the moment. In a similar fashion, I decided to collect the thoughts of others in the form of quotes that I have saved that resonated with me enough to hold on to them.

Office Hours: Tuesdays and Thursdays, 11:30 AM – 12:30 PM. I’ll be available through Zoom and will send an invitation via email that you should keep all semester. Try to join my meeting at the start of the hour, not at the end—since I may be talking to other students or have another appointment after the hour is up. If those times don’t work with your schedule, we can schedule a different time. This means you’ll have to schedule an appointment in advance. I suggest you have multiple times in mind, since your schedule may not mesh with mine!
