It's the most exquisite book written by an poet called Ocean Vuong which makes his writing so lyrical and poetic in the book.

maybe my answer is basic, but despite always having loved writing poetry i haven't actually read much of it until recently. we covered this poem in a course i was taking and it's just so good.
i just finished Ocean Vuong's "Night Sky With Exit Wounds" and it was so good as well, one of my favorites was "Thanksigivng 2006".
another poet i could recommend is Aimee Seu, i'm hoping to buy her book "Velvet Hounds" soon, a poem i love by her is called "Thrift Store Fur".
lastly, another poet i really love is chen chen. i really recommend reading "Summer"!

i like the habit of taking a notebook everywhere and just writing, scribbling whatever. keeps u off ur phone and replaces screentime in a way!

i’ve been hanging out with my mom recently whenever my boyfriend or friends aren’t around, quite like it :) feels very comforting for me

i’m currently in film school, so this is essentially a standard practice for me to get inspired and discover other people’s stories. quite fun, and you realize how many people live such different lives. i honestly wish i could transcribe each and every one of these outside conversations.
