I’m starting to get more committed to editing the four dozen or so poems that I have been avoiding for years now, mostly because I have realized it’s time to go deeper. Although many of them are pretty as they are, like water gliders my words skate across the surface. I think part of this realization has come as I continue to show up for myself and this work. This post was a solid affirmation today; thank you. ❤️
One of my friends used the phrase “under the under” which I have adopted . It’s under the under that I need to go when I want to get to the heart of it.
I would pay good money for Ada Limón to ask me if I drank enough water every day.
Another insightful newsletter today. I am definitely working on just showing up!
Thank you, I needed this. I just took a big sip of water too.
I love love asking the question of "do I want to deeper today?" Often it's "Can I go deeper today?" Tomorrow is another day. Thanks!
oops. "go deeper.." Sorry for the typo!

Ooh, I love that. Subterranean.
