"We are part of the universe, we are in the universe- but perhaps more important than both of those facts, is that the universe is in us."

- NEIL DEGRASSE TYSON

A collection of poetry dedicated to the 7.3 billion wonders of this world.
_____________________
DESCRIPTION

An earthen year's worth of poetry, in which an alien marooned on a satellite, a Red Queen, a time traveller, a Greek god [and more] wonder whether their veins curse with sin, stardust or perhaps a little bit of both.

FEEDBACK

Feedback is vital, because not only can the story improve from it, but so can I as an author. Please never feel afraid to comment what you honestly think. However, I will say there's a difference between constructive criticism and hate :/

Also- I would really appreciate it that if you end up enjoying or consistently reading my story, please vote. It does make a difference in the long run.

IMAGES/VIDEOS IN THIS BOOK

Unless mentioned otherwise, no images or music in this book belong to the author- they are from social media and I take zero credit for them.

[the cover was made by me though, so I will take tiny editing props for that.]

AUTHOR'S NOTE

HEY HEY HEYYYY
this story is coming soon on January 1st, 2016 and I'm very excited for it! I've never written anything too deep on this site, or poetry related, so it'll be fun to try something new.
I've been really inactive on WattPad for the past few months, and hope you guys are as pumped as I am to take off again //

The reasons I've translated from a rant book into poetry are:

1) Ranting isn't as fun for me as it used to be :|

2) I'm really starting to enjoy free verse as well as sci fi

3) and with a new year, I need some kind of resolution to stick to anyways [since I typically never do]

Updates will be daily, but varying in length as well as quality [based on how busy I am that day.] If all goes off without a hitch, this book should be completed by 2017.

please note that this story isn't made up of professional poetry- it is not heavily edited, and most of it will be free verse with no rhyme [I have no skill/time for rhyme]
[time for rhyme]
[I just rhymed]
[the irony]

anyways, poetry is a way for me to low-key put my thoughts into words, so it's going to be pretty imperfect.

as far as playlists go, I'm going to start searching for music that matches each of my stories. I'll start a "leaves to ash" playlist soon. my Spotify account is @okaypayton

thanks so much for checking this book out, I'll be posting a prelude poem soon [probably around December 31st], but I want it to be my best work.
