what is this, anyway?

original poetry (c) D. Ohlandt

sometimes photographs

and sometimes more prose-like musings

I've been writing free unstructured poems pretty much since I learned that such a thing exists. There was a long time between college and middle age that I neglected to write poetry, but I am finding my way back to it.

Included here are the forty new poems I wrote as part of my #40for40 project. Individual poems are listed along the left side of the page.
