June 12, 2026 The Stay Zen Verse is looking to grow, and we’re searching for people who don’t just love words — we’re looking for people willing to use them. If you know a writer, poet, storyteller, spoken word artist, or creative thinker who enjoys being challenged, encouraged, and inspired, send them our way. We’re building more than a community.We’re building a space where creativity is exercised, voices are sharpened, perspectives are expanded, and growth is welcomed. We’re especially looking for individuals who: ✍️ Enjoy writing and creative expression📖 Participate in prompts and discussions🎤 Support fellow creatives🌱 Want to grow their craft alongside others🤝 Value community and meaningful engagement A thriving community is built by active members who show up, share, and pour into one another. If someone comes to mind, please have them reach out to me directly so I can provide them with the information and invitation link to join us. Let’s continue building something worth belonging to. With Gratitude, Angel Kim Co-Owner, Stay Zen Verse “Where creativity finds community, and community inspires growth.”

Spaces Where your art is like Chinese Arithmetic They dont catch the flow so cobwebs in lobes keep them medicated And its okay if you are the galactic ignorant I see myself alone Cast away like a ship wrecked with a good sail I wont bail from accountability nope.. But I cant see that door revolving If I can be honest they might not deserve my spit I mic drop hints for cheese to lab rats that only profit from slavery Brave not to conform Just honest Pens And it wont happen again ©️thelyricalexodus #tresduravia

Inside it as 3 Corners of a Triangle 120 times 3 Equal 4 Corners of victory You see past them in the Divinity The morrow says dont wait for me 360 reasons of Affirmations that roll off the tounges in poetry Writes of prosperity Like a blade of wild grass in the spring Where in totally unrelated language becomes Ideology Saying dont copy me Learn on your own I Labor in syntax 99years ahead while others figure why the doors are closed I fold these sentences Crisp from the clothesline of time When letters type themselves in gardens And insects of commas pause and walk in soil Sail with me to another ending With water Encased with a period. Saying a apology about a capital letter that starts it over.. Framework in your eyes as you read it!!! ©️thelyricalexodus #tresduravia

Rooted Readiness I’ve been working on this for quite a while. The reason it took so long to get it to you is because once I had it finished — the Strait of Hormuz entered the equation and changed everything. 👀 So now, as promised, you have an explanation and game plan at your fingertips for how to prepare for the fall. If you’d like a plan tailored to your household/situation/budget, I am open to providing complimentary 30-minute consults to the first 10 members who DM me. If that’s not enough time, or you require extensive resources of materials (shopping lists, portion sizes, etc.), I can provide 60 minutes for $75 (half off of my regular rates).
