Valerie Braylovskiy (PO '25) is a poet from San Francisco, California.
A poet's religionEvery time I start a poem, I have an anxiety attack. Because what if God decides he is tired of funding my poetic pilgrimage and cuts me off.
“You can never write again” I cry, my fingers paralyzed on a raw Californian morning, snow bleeds from my chalky lips. |
Scientific Commentary on CoffeeI am writing this in a coffee shop,
drinking a cup of coffee, struggling to begin my personal critique on our foolish obsession with the very object I sip. I already feel my neurons disobeying their ruler. They live in a drug cartel owned by Adenosine. |
