Air Catcher

Posted on by SHE'S IN PRISON

Air CatcherPer my usual Saturday series, tonight’s poem uses the title of a twenty one pilots song. Check out my past TOP titled posts Implicit Demand for Proof and The Run and Go and tune in again next week for post #4 in the series. As always, don’t forget to check out twenty one pilots’ version of Air Catcher below.

I rarely talk about the meaning of my poetry because I don’t like to sway interpretations or influence the experience of reading the poem, but I will say that this poem stings a little today.

A Life With T1D

Posted on by SHE'S IN PRISON

For me, September marks the start of type 1 diabetes season, meaning it’s when I start gathering my team and raising funds for the Walk to Cure Diabetes in early October. The song I’m singing in the video above is inspired by “House of Gold” by twenty one pilots, only I’ve rewritten the lyrics to raise awareness for T1D. I’ve published my version in a previous post which I’ve also included again below. I realize that this post is a little different than all my others, but as a diabetic of 12 years, I think it’s important to step out of my box and mix it up in order to convey just how important this cause is to my heart.

The Run and Go

Posted on by SHE'S IN PRISON

The Run and Go

As a poet and twenty one pilots fanatic, it made perfect sense to write my own verse to the titles of all their tracks and post them as a new Saturday series on She’s in Prison. Despite last week’s brief hiatus due to Heart Week, from this point forward, all Saturday posts will be part of the series. As always, thank you to twenty one pilots for being a never-ending source of inspiration. If you haven’t seen it yet, check out my previous TOP titled poem “Implicit Demand for Proof” and  check out their version of The Run and Go below.

Serenity

Posted on by SHE'S IN PRISON

SerenityToday is day 7 of Heart Week on She’s in Prison. This morning I walked in the St. Louis Congenital Heart Walk in memory of my sister that died from a CHD as well as in honor of friends that have fought and are still fighting for their lives. I felt utterly blessed to volunteer side by side with my family, friends, and an entire community that has been impacted by CHD. Somehow it feels right that this last post is also a Josh Dun Poetry Corner poem because the music of twenty one pilots has touched my heart in a way I can barely describe with a metaphor. Thank you to everyone that has shown their support over the past 7 days!
