A Religion of One

Posted on April 21, 2021 by mitchteemley

My Featured Blogger this week is Jewish Young Professional, whose pithy poetry and often witty prose never fail to engage me. She is honest and down-to-earth, even confessional–which is all-too-rare a quality in our world today. Read on and you’ll see what I mean!

    Thank you, Mitch! I wanted to capture those feelings of belief, doubt, loneliness, and even that bit of self-righteousness at the end. (this narrator’s voice is possibly my favorite of all the poetry I have written). So glad to hear that it has resonated with you and your readers!

    I think it must be awkward to have an inherent knowing of the “dignity of the body” in an age that is accelerating towards trans-humanism. Thanks for these poetic images!
