Poetry Book From Songs From Podcast #lorijeanfinnila #poetrybook #podcast

I've updated my poetry book cover that's coming out this Fall. I'm pleased I'm feeling more comfortable expressing myself with my work. I feel confident I'm getting closing to communicating fully in a way I want. It's such a good feeling. 

I love the color of the cover and the photo I took. I took many photos of flowers hiking and at my local park that I walk around. I'm so proud I pushed myself even when tired to do this. I even wrote a song about the exhaustion of this in "On the Edge of Death" which I put into poem form as the other songs I've written from my weekly podcast. I'm  not happy it doesn't fit my artist photo on the back cover but I didn't like the photo I had anyway. There still may be changes to come but I'm getting closer.

My nose gruffles The air is thick I’m feeling dizzy I’m coughing Thinking I’m losing my mind I’m remembering things years ago Like they’re yesterday not sure of their proper time frame It dawns-my hit on the head-but it can’t be  because it doesn’t seem practical Aaah I’m thinking clear now it was the mold in the apartment  I hear it takes your brain Oh I have to fix this I will Just a crack in the window I’m feeling better I’m thinking clearer I’m still getting flashes in my life I can’t line up the  times to  Oh that’s right I was hit on the head.
