Our libraries are closed and so Poetic Power is on hiatus until at least April 6th!!
But, we can't be silenced, right? To vote, to not vote. To hide, to socialize. We are truly in a state of confusion. What are YOUR circumstances? Are you on paid leave, furloughed, laid off or simply have no idea where you are right now?!? What gives, and what do we do as a collective nation of people? We need to remain connected, vigilant and smart now more than ever so that we come out of this madness with our heads on straight, our spirits intact and proud that we seized the opportunities that were presented before us. What's your move? The floor is open!
