I realized that even when the artists whose blogs I follow don’t write about their art, I still appreciate knowing what’s going on in their lives. So here:
I am heading into the last week of finals for this quarter’s Medical Assisting classes, and today was the first day in a while I got [...]

here is a poem I wrote last week. It is called “Cork”.
