Lately, I've been feeling increasingly uncomfortable of posting poems and talking about poetry here. This is for two reasons:
1. I feel like I'm foisting poetry on people who don't care. This isn't about seeking validation, I don't expect people to be interested in everything I post (vice versa is certainly true). I simply wanted to give people who

I have friended it, of course, because I would hate to miss out on your future poetry, but I'm also sad that it's not going to stay here - I rather liked the little patchwork of poems and fannish/lifeish posts, it was like a treasure hunt where the prize changed depending on what you happened to be looking for. :)

It could be poetry by bears or poetry about bears and either way it would be FIERCE

[kat_lair]

Hee. That would be fierce indeed. Though I am still intrigued about the other kind of bear poetry... *g*

It kind of is, all part of my 'do something with your poetry' new year's resolution...

Added back!

I love the poetry journal's layout! Awesomely serene.

Aww danke! It's the basic flexible squares, I just fiddled with the colours and used pretty graphics from roxicons which is an awesome place.
