An argument has arisen,
About crossing provincial borders during a pandemic.
On a more intuitive level,
It is at times like these in the past,
That I've begun planting some new perennials.
What aligns with your understanding,
When you think about effectiveness?
For me it's around adapting to blindness,
Which happens to correspond closely to,
A big task.
The above is an experimental poem based on a workshop exercise. From my journal for the month of August, I copied and pasted every twelfth line into a new document, from where I selected a short section to play with. After omitting lines that contained names of people and places, and adding the second line to give the poem context, the only alterations I made involved punctuation and one verb form. The result isn't exactly profound but I do think it provides surprising insight into what was on my mind at the time of writing.
