Finding Peace in a Crazy World
A Poem for Modern Times
In this world of screens and constant noise
It's hard to find a moment to enjoy
The simple things that once brought us peace
Like a walk through the woods, or a day at the beach
We're bombarded by ads and alerts, all day
And the pace of life just seems to keep speeding up
We're told we have to have it all, right now
And we're left feeling tired, and somehow still somehow
But I know that there's a way to slow down
To find some balance in this crazy town
It's just a matter of making the time
To appreciate the beauty that surrounds us, and shine
So let's take a break from the screens and the stress
And find some joy in the little things, I suggest
We'll feel so much better, I guarantee
If we just remember to stop and smell the roses, you'll see.

My New Book is Finally Here
My poetry collection Beautiful and Brutal Things is done. It's actually done and finally published over 270 pages. Over a year of my life went into this book. More than a year, really. Long days at my computer, sometimes seven days a week because I couldn't stop even when I probably should have. Then two months of editing that felt harder than the writing itself. But it's finished, and I'm still standing, and the book is real.
