Hi everyone. My life is chaos, I haven't had too much time to write at all. I do have two stories in my head though, and partially on paper, but it'll be a while yet before they're posted. But until then I thought I'd share this with you. In one of my classes, my teacher taught us about "Sound poetry." She said that you can convey a person, place, thing, or event buy using the sounds associated with it. Well in my limited time, I decided to try my hand at it and came out with this. Now for your enjoyment. "An Average Duke Day."
