Before You Share: A Note on Courage & Care
This space exists for truth, not performance.
When you share a poem here, you don’t owe anyone polish, explanation, or permission. You don’t need to justify why you wrote it or apologize for how it sounds. A few lines of context is enough. Let the poem breathe on its own.
Write like this:
Share what feels honest
Share what feels unfinished
Share what feels risky
That’s usually where the real work lives.
Receiving feedback
Take what resonates. Leave the rest.
Feedback is an offering, not a verdict.
If something doesn’t fit your voice or your moment, you’re allowed to set it down without guilt.
Giving feedback
Respond to what moved you, not what you’d change. No fixing. No correcting. No ego. If you didn’t connect, it’s okay to simply listen.
We protect courage here.
We honor the wound without trying to heal it for someone else.
When you’re ready, share a few lines, not to impress, just to be real.
