Poetry was my first love in the wide world of creative writing. I love language. I love its sounds, its rhythms, its forms. Reading and writing poetry resonates so deeply in my heart, it often transcends to what I can only call a spiritual practice. As such, I’ve often used the medium to explore metaphysical ideas such as grace or reverence—even after deconstructing from my Mormon upbringing, a journey that ultimately ended in agnostic atheism. Poetry is my personal brand of secular spirituality, a place where I allow myself to feel and express awe for the mysteries of life.
