Week Six: Poetry Is...

Contagious.

I am SO excited for this week's challenge that I've already started! When I was in college I spent many hours (instead of doing homework) writing spoken word poetry. Skip ahead a few years...

Poetry Changed My Life.

But things get busy. Bills have to get paid. You make new friends who don't live and breathe slam poetry. And so somewhere along the way I got lost. I stopped writing, stopped preferming, stopped thinking in verses.

Until NOW.

This week and I am going to write at least FIVE pieces of varrying lengths and at least three of them have to be about specific people. Of course, I will post them on here as proof of my word. Literally.

For you readers out there - I encourage you to write a little as well. If you're feeling brave, go ahead and email me your work. Id LOVE to read it.

Until then...
