Hashtag Poetry Poem #57

Every weekday in 2022 I’ll post six lines of unique poetry on Twitter, and then archive it here for posterity with some additional observations. Here is Poem #57:

consideration, presented as
illumination… take this time
redefine the path, forward
with determination, create
for yourself, fresh space …#HashtagPoetry #poetrycommunity #poem #poetry
