It’s Been a Long Month
It’s been a long month, with not much time nor energy to spare for anything beyond the essentials. The reason? Work’s been extremely busy, and will likely to continue that way at least through the election. Things will still be busy after the election, but the pace should slow down to more tolerable levels. The mad dash till November 4th will transform into a quick march till Christmas and the holiday giving season.
As a result, the writing has been all over the place, with lots of first drafts. I think there are some good ideas buried in a couple of them, but I haven’t had the internal resources to go digging for them. That’s why I’m posting another poem that was completed earlier this year — a poem that was hard to write, but one that I’m very proud of.
I hope you enjoy this Poetry Monday’s submission: Girding Her Loins.
