⚡️ In closing, Douglas Vigliotti reads a short essay titled "Are You the Bunny or the Hat?", which was originally published on DouglasVigliotti.com in August 2020, and then concluded his poem collection, "mini heartbreaks (or, little poems about life)".

🔮 In late 2021, as a writing exercise, Douglas Vigliotti, author of “Tom Collins: A ‘Slightly Crooked' Novel”, wrote a poem a day for five months, with just one rule: be honest. He had no intention of releasing any of the poems, but what emerged, was a deeply personal, unflinching, and unbridled account of his life which led to this raw, sparse, and unorthodox poem collection titled “mini heartbreaks (or, little poems about life)”. Leaving room for interpretation but organized to tell a story, this all-too-close mini-memoir in poetry form pulls up the veil on writing, artistry, alcohol, women, missed opportunities, growing up, and moving forward. Heck, it might even leave you inspired.
💔 What is a mini heartbreak?
some are sad / some are hopeful / some are personal / some are long / er / than others
most / are this length / though
and a few / might even / make you cry
or smile / or think twice / or ask yourself / is this guy crazy
to that / i say / only half the time / and / i hope / you enjoy / my poems
