Revision

After a more-reasonable-than-last-time hair appointment at 10:30 this morning, I came home and revised five poems. I started the process yesterday at work--I'm already thinking ahead to my last submission for workshop in a couple of weeks. Anyway, I identified the pieces I want to hand out and in a fit of creative energy, I developed a new vision for the work. I feel the poems opening up into something more...more daring. There is one in particular where I had been shying away from the ending I really wanted it to have because it's so "balls out," but in the end, I did it. I wrote what scared me.
