Text of a poem titled "she who caught an angel once"
I've always wondered if metamorphosis really exists.
Do people change? Or do they just find out they've always been someone else?

Text of a poem titled "My Forked Heart"
A love of mathematics & writing.
Pointed out by a friend.
The beginning of a serious-fun poem.
Enjoy. #poetry #literature #writing #mathematics
Thanks for this, KB.

When it comes to haunting, you can't not think of Wuthering Heights. Bronte knew how to haunt with her words better than anyone.
The ghost here? She's merely trying. #poetry #haunting #literature
