You have successfully reached my Home page, which I lovingly title

“This Is a Home Page With Nothing on It

Even Though I Spent 8 Hours In a Coffee Shop

Trying Desperately to Figure Out What to Write

to Make the Perfect First Impression

and so, to Avoid a Nervous Breakdown,

I Decided to Leave It (Mostly) Blank.”

Indeed, there is (almost) nothing on this page, besides this picture of a duckling.

and this poem, which I cast into the void as a rallying call.

strong thing:

you've been dancing devastation for
so long
you quiver like you are full of 
arrows aimed inwards
are you holding or hunting pain?
how you move matters.
