About Alexandra Heep:

Alexandra Heep is a longtime writer, chronic over-thinker, and recovering content mill survivor. Her work has appeared in literary journals, anthologies, and online platforms where words are still respected. She writes children’s books, health reflections, and the occasional blog post laced with humor and hard-won honesty. After years of illness, detours, and navigating the noise of modern wellness, she returned to writing with the firm belief that stories—like people—don’t have to be perfect to matter. She publishes under multiple pen names and drinks more goat milk than you’d expect.

Word Bank Poems

These were created by using three random words given by Kat Apf who oversaw the NaPoWriMo challenge I participated in.

1. (bags/diet/ring)

Since I've packed my bags to move
my diet surely did improve
I moved for love, to join two lives
but, more than that, my soul now thrives.

He works hard to keep me fed,
clothed, and with a roof over my head
No money for a golden ring
It matters not, in harmony we sing.

2. (crazy/battle ax/tired)

I might be crazy as a battle ax at times
tired from fighting what doctors can't define
he loves me all the same, and I want him to know
What I don't say enough, when my spirit is low

Life is not easy with me, that I can see
yet, our bond is strong while we both feel free
in a world of negativity and disdain
we found what matters, our love will always remain.


3. (math/carpet,/scramble)

Escape (Senryu)

I can do the math
magic carpet ride will do
leave it all behind
