Karol Nielsen : part four

What do you find most difficult about writing poetry?

I draw on life experience to write poetry. I have always been inspired while living in New York City. But I have spent the pandemic working remotely at my parent’s house in Connecticut. I had to draw on memory to come up with poems: I wrote about my childhood, old boyfriends, travel, even social media! I am running out of things to write about. But I will be moving back to the city once my office reopens at the end of summer. I hope to once again be inspired by random encounters in the city.
