I'm Doida. I dabble with words and images—poems, paragraphs, paints, and pictures. Some of which get posted here. Welcome!

FLUX—poems for middles
FLUX: a state of constant change, motion, turbulence, or uncertainty
It’s the middle school years and your life is in flux—exploding expectations, fluctuating friendships, burgeoning bodies. No wonder you’re bouncing between wow, wah, haha, awesome, omg, ugh, uh-uh, meh, awkward, ouch, really? and whatever....
All poems, drawings, and photography on this site are the creative property of Doida
We All Vibe
I love the ways
we goof and game,
link and slang,
dress, roll, laugh, hang.
My friends are awesome,
quirky and chill—
we all vibe.
We crock, TikTok, hip lock,
one tribe, one flock—
we all vibe.
Some Say
Some say finish what you start,
I start everything and finish what I love.
Some say live for the moment,
I say why not take your time?
Some say never let them see you cry,
I say wah.
Some say curiosity killed the cat,
I say better a stiff tabby than a bored brain.
Some say silence is golden,
I say, yes, but car-yodeling is brilliant fuchsia.
Some say laughter is the best medicine,
I say true–especially when you're sick of faking normal all day.
