Today’s poem, Tyrian Purple, is, how shall I say it, a little ambitious! I am really enjoying this Invention of Color theme that has come about the past week, thanks to the podcast from Stuff You Missed In History Class.  I think I probably had about 20 browser tabs open in the process of writing this poem! I am grateful for a father-in-law who was able to come play with my kiddo for a few hours this morning so I could get back on track with my writing.

Yesterday’s poem, Ochre, is not my favorite, but I needed simply to put it out there and move on.  Such is the nature of this project.

As a reminder, the goal of this project is to help Tupelo raise money for it’s publishing endeavors.  If you are able, consider giving $5 on my behalf to help out.  Here is the link to their online donation system. Thanks!
