Poems In My Shoe Box is a random collection of poems I stored in my shoebox during my teenage years. Its' focus reveals my deepest thoughts on notebook paper. During those times, my topics expanded my vulnerability, uniqueness, and confidentiality. Finally, the openness is being conveyed after over two decades.
Picture this...it's the late 1980s to mid-1990s. No flash drives. No Androids or Chromebooks. No external hard drives. No copying and pasting with a mouse's right click. No cloud storage. Just a typewriter and no whiteout. This was a time when you had to perfectly type it all. One mistake meant redoing the entire page. I bet this sounds ancient like dinosaur times, huh?!
Before all the technologies, I kept it traditional with pen and paper. Everything was different. But I learned to organize and kept track of all my poetry, stories, essays, and songs in a shoe box. As time passed, I invested in technical strategies for organizing my work. But I'll always treasure my 1990s colorful, cardboard shoe boxes.
