The typewriter poet was a wonderful edition to the Literary Ball. #literaryball #ladygeeksofatlanta #typewriterpoet #poem #typewriter

a woman's hands hold a poem.

for Moiron

A poem about flowers

petty as petals floats
my indigo, my last strung wir.
in fields of nectared stems
grows a rough idea
as all ideas are grown' over
grown in chlorophylled dreams

- Jimmy Lee.

a pair of hands rests against a typewriter.

Jimmy Lee types at a type writer against a brick wall.

My typewriter poem from the Literary Ball. #poem #literaryball #typewriterpoet #ladygeeksofatlanta

Butterflies a poem for Michele

Perhaps the tension in my back
Is not enough to hold this transformation
From solid to liquid to gas
A breath above every stamen
A visitation in the spring hour
I'm late to my appointment
With my favorite flower.

-Jimmy Lo

A few shots of the Literary Ball before it got started. #Literaryball #booksky

A woman dressed as Alice in Wonderland sits in a chair laughing, behind her is a wall of books.

A wall of typewriter keys is the backdrop for a small table and chairs.

An arch made of books against a brick wall.

Candles and flowers made from book paper are delicately arranged on a table.

At 37 miles into our journey to Mordor, we come to a fork in the road and make a fateful decision—leaving the main path behind, we venture into an ancient oak forest. For this leg, we’ll be hiking 4 miles along the Red and White trails at Sweetwater Creek State Park. 🚶🥾

A person with a tall, steepled hat, resembling that of a wizard, stands with a staff near a well-worn path through a mountain range.

Now 34 miles into our epic trek to Mordor, we find ourselves taking a detour off the main road to avoid the looming danger of the Black Rider. This next leg of our journey brings us to the peaceful yet wild terrain of Lullwater Preserve.
