I've just pressed send on another hopeful poetry competition entry. It's a proper pie in the sky one. I've worked hard on this and I know the sense of failure will be more intense because I've tried.I am proud of what I've made and I've also realised how much I protect myself through self-sabotage.

Instead of “once upon a time,” Korean folk and fairy tales often begin with 호랑이 담배 피우던 시절에. It means “back when tigers smoked (pipes)”

The sky is bright blue..An image of trees taken from below, showing crown shyness, the phenomenon where trees grow to allow space for other trees.
