Where are you from?
Good morning. My poem "Where are you from?" and two other poems ("The Little Girl and the Bully" and "Always and Never") were published today by Black Mirror Magazine.
You can read them here.
Have fun.
Julia, having your poems published is an excellent way to start the new year, congrats! All three are beautifully written and thought provoking. “Where are you from?” is intriguing, love the mystery of it, and the line, “a mosaic of memories and dreams that perish inside a question mark.” One could ponder that line for a long time. I could feel the longing and looking beyond the present in “Always and Never.” “The Little Girl and the Bully” makes a powerful statement. Thanks for sharing them with us.
Congratulations, Julia! I really enjoyed reading these! Thank you!
