I have to do an anthology (doing it tonight for tmw bc I’m a lazy procrastinating piece of shit) based on a theme of our choice and it can be literally anything (I picked a boring typical one bc I don’t care) and I just realised I could have picked “poems written by a woman” as a theme instead but actually there’s not enough poems written by a woman in the book we need to pick them from
