"We Will Not Be Controlled" - This resistance poem is about the current political climate we find ourselves in. With all the intentional steps the current presidential administration is taking towards becoming a fascist nation, this piece reflects how the American people standing up for democracy will never be silenced and controlled; "Selective Empathy" - This rondeau is about how empathy is becoming more of a commodity of choice within the context of the current political climate; "A Misty Forest Greets the Travelers" - This haiku illustrates the journey of wayward travelers hiking through a misty forest.

Creativity is the avenue that grants me the ability to convey my experiences to the world. It's a vessel of beauty that allows me to be my true self in various forms. Without creativity, I fear people may be limited to seeing the world in a mere one-dimensional form.
