The Waiting Room

When writing The Waiting Room, I thought of humanitarian crises throughout history—and now—and especially how hospitals have been targeted. I wanted to emphasize the importance of continuing the conversation around it. This poem comes from the perspective of a clock. The more time that passes during which we do not act, the more time passes during which innocent lives are taken. Call for ceasefire now.

Creativity is a struggle to churn out words that is almost always worth it. It is something I have to fight for, rather than something that comes naturally. Most days, creativity is my worst enemy. Then, I finish a piece, and all is well.
