"Optimism", a short #poem about the #ClimateCrisis. Born from anger at those in power and a spiralling sense of helplessness.

Today (well, the past few days) I actually did things. I rewrote a whole load of old #poems from my #AllPoetry account and published them in a collection on #Belletristica.

Wrote a #blog post about it and all:

Have a wee read if you're interested, I'm actually pretty proud of the new versions. Also, it'll probably be ages before I'm this productive again, so read it while it's hot I suppose :P
