redacted is live.
finally.
the last few days have been a smorgasbord of emotions for me. most obvious of these was excitement, but there were also pangs of anxiousness and dread at the thought of being so vulnerable and honest. i imagine most writers and creatives feel this ambivalence on the eve of sharing their work with the world.
ultimately, i hope these poems produce goosebumps. i hope they resonate with and creatively stoke those that read them. they may not for all, but i hope they do for most.
here’s to hoping.
