Hey there everyone.

I’m participating in NaPoWriMo 2020, if you aren’t following the NaPoWriMo website already then go check it out at www.napowrimo.net.

For today’s entry, I have written a found poem inspired by “Regardless of Disaster” by Jessica Greenbaum. You can read the quirky lyrics to this endearing poem below.

Finally, here is my own found poem, thank you for reading and good luck with all of your NaPoWriMo adventures throughout this month!

“The Naked Corners Within” by David Ellis

Through renovation
Bounce gleefully, feel satisfaction
Take apart time and experiences
Sitting close
Watch, as enjoyment comes
When bucking expectation
Change direction, undeterred, calmly
Finding the naked corners within
Delight things other than ourselves
Separate instinct, from the moment
When something feels better than before in this place
Optimism of now, regardless of it all
