First Blog

I am a poet of sorts. I can not claim to have been unsuccessful at this venture. However, I have recently been drained of all creativity as my body prepares for its greatest achievement yet, childbirth.

It feels as though my inner eye has been shrouded with the film of disuse. Daily life has quelled the once free flowing thoughts. Monotony has replaced metonymy... I am lost.

Perhaps, if nothing else, this blog will serve as a sounding board to my frustration. If I can gain even a portion of what I have lost these many months, I will count myself lucky. A poem is a slippery thing. I blink, I whisper, and it is gone.
