Drum and bass is nice. So are lofi sounds. I wanted to try my hand at writing a song that was a little more standard, and it turned out better than I expected! This is probably my first completed song with vocals and original lyrics, so it holds a special place in my heart.

I have always appreciated absurdity. This story absolutely is that. It's short, simple, a little sad, and simply bizarre. Sometimes there is no explanation for life's oddities and we're left to cope on our own.

I think form poetry is fascinating. This is my attempt at a pantoum. I actually wrote the first draft of it a long while ago, was okay with it enough and shelved it. Later, I had a particularly intense long distance relationship and I felt inspired to revisit it. This is what I ended up with.

I wrote this poem sometime around 2010, and it has remained in state of near-constant revision since then. I submitted it to a competition at writer's festival, and it won first place for the adult's poetry division. I think it's some of my best writing, so I wanted to share.

I actually wrote this in 2023, somewhere in November and December, as part of a song—the first one I have managed to write and produce to relative completion! While I'm really proud of the lyrics, I'm less proud of the music in its current state (I have very specific need of a group of children to sing two parts of the song). Otherwise, I think it's solid. Either way, until further notice, the lyrics stand alone.
