This happened today…
I’ve never floated for so long without the aid of a crane, suspension bridge, boat or pill!
Next year, my debut collection with be brought to life by Hedgehog Poetry Press.
This city of magic has never shone so magically like it has today…
Now, I’m off to breath and be grateful.
Dami (who wants to say a huge, enormous, great, big, brilliant, warm, long lasting, all embracing thank you to you all for coming by and being beautiful, encouraging, inspirational, talented souls)
