Curiosity has brought you here, where everyday moments become puzzles and thoughts turn into mirrors.
Hello, I'm Joseph.
From my first exploratory verses in 2014-15 to the countless half-finished thoughts scattered across papers and time, I've always been drawn to the potential of language. In the early years my poetic practice was sporadic—moments of inspiration followed by lengthy quiet stretches—but as the years progressed my reflections, musings, and writings grew steadier, and I turned to this art more and more consistently. Poetry, in its purest form, mirrors the inner depths of awareness, the subtle nuances of feeling, and the ever-shifting world around us. Through a fascination for philosophy and the complexities of existence, I explore, reflect, and create.
This blog is a journal for my explorations, where I delve deeply into the intricate dance between personal experiences and our understanding of existence. My purpose for this website is to also serve as an ever-changing creative space, a sanctuary where I can better understand myself as I truly am. Within this blog, you will encounter poetry from themes of love, experience, identity, meaning, and the fleeting nature of life, among many others. My style may oscillate between reflective musings and philosophical inquiries, inviting you to ponder alongside me. Each entry unfolds in its own rhythm, unbound by order or curation, allowing for a genuine exploration of thought and feeling.
Poetry is a personal love, a way of transforming moments, memories, and dreams into a timeless expression. I write not as a professional, nor within the structured confines of a traditional blog, but as a means of preserving my own clarity and sanity. Though I strive to keep my prose tidy, I remain a work-in-progress—an ink-stained Earthling continuously evolving.
My entries of this multifaceted journey into the human condition are accompanied by my artwork.
Thank you for being here,
M. Joseph Boehler

Join me on Mastodon!
I'm excited to mention that I'm utilizing the Mastodon platform to create another space where I can express my written art. Here you can expect a welcoming and a bit more personable environment. This will be the only social media page for this blog, making it a special place for us to engage.
What is Mastodon? Mastodon is a decentralized social media platform where users can join independent communities, known as instances. It allows for sharing posts and engaging in conversations, but emphasizes users control and privacy. Every instance has its own rules, creating a sense of community. This offers a unique alternative from the typical social media experience.
I warmly invite you to join me on Mastodon: @Boehlerstudio
