Oftentimes it is a personal experience; a secret kept from the world and shared only through whispers of intimacy. At other times, poetry can be the podium for powerful statements, meant to move...

you know what i think?
gnixon571: i think beauty has absolutely nothing to do with physical appearance. i think beauty isn’t physical. i think beauty is entirely mental. for example, men aren’t attracted to women because their physical appearance is somehow perfect or close to perfect, men are attracted to women because something about that man causes him to find that women attractive. the thing is that through a...

Last night I went to a little get-together with a handful of friends from my graduating class and we had the most lovely time. We’re all grown up now and spread out between different universities, but finding ourselves all in the same room again, it’s like nothing had changed. It was so wonderful to catch up and hear eachother’s stories and reminisce about old times, laughing and...

Are twenty-year-olds not deep?
My grandparents visited tonight and asked to read the poem I wrote that was published in the U of T paper. So I obliged and they read in earnest, coming to the conclusion (after obligatory praise and accolades), that my writing was “deep, ESPECIALLY FOR AN ALMOST-TWENTY-YEAR-OLD.” What does that mean?!??? I’ve considered my words to be sufficiently lacking with regards to depth...
