Ahhh you know what? I like Diaryland better, despite LJ's rich text formatting and supposed autosaving of drafts (ha!) and icons and- ah I don't know. I think I'll head back to the old watering hole; hopefully I'll get back in the writing groove.

 I gave up on poetry long ago. Sometimes it seems everything I put my time into in my childhood - making art, writing words - I've lost those things, or forgotten them; and what do I have left, now?
