Last December 31, I wrote a list of things I will do for the year 2009. Become a better worker, control my book shopping addiction, etc. One of these things was to ‘try to write a poem everyday’. Thus Sasha Poesies was born.

Sometimes I’ll write them here directly, sometimes I’ll transfer them from my journal. If the latter, I will post the date I wrote it on the subject line.

Warning: My poems are mostly sad and painful. They are rarely happy and uplifting. They might not even be finished. But they are always from the heart. /cheese
