Sheridan Guerrette, the poetic powerhouse, wrestles with bone-deep fatigue and heartache, devastated to miss her baby sister's college graduation amid a whirlwind of chaos that forces endless naps, reheated tea, and total surrender. She reignites her spark by teasing her forthcoming poetry book, a lifeline woven from middle-school hideaways and D.C. midnight scribbles. She shares a heart-piercing poem from the collection alongside her sweet first-ever verse, then dives into the hilarious saga of a Facebook Marketplace couch war: jammed tight in her quirky cottage's narrow hallway. Next week, her words blaze brighter. Stay poetic, readers.
